a masterpiece of the absurd!
an intergalactic journey through chaos
with its subsequent conflicting reasons.
what more to say, so as to extoll
this irrational, for the finite human existence, anthem??
Arcturus, this very time, simply went "beyond light".
Compositions of a concretized dimention. Massive... though so elusive!
no straightforward feelings,
are able to imply such an unearthly musical entity.
Their sound, elegantly uplifting.
The black metal feeling is no more in a latent situation
like their predecessor "La Masquerade Infernale".
on the contrary, the maniacally- "Snorre" stylish- riffs
may devastate ones fixed and sober universe (for sure!)
The asteroid projections on the sequencers and keyboards
are there to guide you through controversial feelings.
Clear and droopy piano melodies
entangled exquisitely with Arcturus'
star-filled universal plain
travels your mind calmly
through darkness and wisdom.
songs like "Kinetic","Nightmare Heaven"
with their intensive scizzoid final outcome, enhanced of course
by the incredibly clever melodic vocals, from the master of innovation Tricster G, are here to embed you in oblivion!!
Yes! His voice does the difference!
charismatic, in expressing the most
undefined sentiments with the most unnatural
yet humanish way!just a brilliant singer and composer!!
nothing else to say for this extraterrestrial jewel..."for to end yet a again"

...the voyage goes on....
