lyrics

The Encounter

When the sudden light
Came to me
Then I realized
What you see
Fell from reddened skies
Suddenly
Right inside our mind
Plant the seed

With a broken soul
Broken cause
Self entitled gods
No applause
With the blackened smoke
I awoke
With that energy
You invoked

Into the night
Lost all my sight
Outside of my mind

The brightest of lights
Shun upon the skies

Forsaken my race
Broken a bond
Stare into space
And what lies beyond
Beyond space and stars
Calls from afar
Down falls the rain
Still life remains

Beyond blackened arts
Lie shattered hearts
Lay broken minds
All of mankind
By candlelight
Sights of your doom
Dormant in time
The end of the line

Back to the night
Blinded by lights
The last of my kind

All will ever be
All that was
Pleased by energy
Pleased by lust
Held by severed hands
In the void
Lost in wasted lands
With no voice

For some reason, what I previewed and the real songs was somewhat different - maybe because of the cover art? But I definitely don't regret something more spacial than expected. The recent Ocean drifting in space. frankwurst

It's only four tracks, yes, but it's four tracks of great cosmic psychedelia. Here's my full review - https://www.7thlevelmusic.com/?p=12710 Nik Havert

The flac version of this sounds great in my truck... not a crunch, clip or boom to be heard. That, in itself, gets this major points. This is a lovely combination of early Floyd, U2 and a few San Francisco bands from the '60s with a heavy dose of Helmet tossed in. It's definitely best of breed when it comes to modern psych stuff. Even without a Hammond B3, it gets an easy A+... rick-taylor
