lyrics

Carrying the burden of their own sins
They scramble up the slippery walls of a bottomless pit
Those cursed people who recite the same prayers
Let themselves be guided by the charming light

Frightened by the heat of their sins
They pray to buy God´s forgiveness
And with the last penny they were saving
They pay and give to build God a vast marble fortress

At the time of his parade on Sunday everyone greeted father Zweigart
They looked at the man from the ground as if he were a big old monument
A few exclusive villagers interrupted him during his stroll
Zweigart reminded them the importance of keeping the faith

And there was Mary who just lost her husband
Turning herself to god she asked for food
The servant of the lord will take care of this withered flower

They are the brothers of a messenger who came from the skies
They pray with fervor and devotion for the love prevails
They are the sons of a Father who loves them so much

There was the one who preceded the Mystic Lamb
Who had been placed in a basket of reeds
The one that was left to the drift of a river
To avoid infanticide

With this bright halo that shines above his head
He blinds the crowd clamped down before him
Showing them only pure light
He hands over his absolute wisdom

And by strong gestures in his cassock
He reveals the powers of God
He captivates them with holy words
Issued from his speech that will save them all

Another very good release from Canadian Rick Miller. I don't think that this gentleman can put out a bad record even if he tried. If you follow this artist and like his style of music that will not change with this release. lloydd

When you like your prog to be more beautiful and/or accessible than prog-proggy, than this is for you! Melodic as hell and yes, Peter Falconer is quite a singer! That wouldn't go half the way without the solid songs of Pat Sanders. A great combination of skills ;-) Carsten Pieper

The debut album of this great Polish prog band. It may not be quite as polished or mature as the latest couple of albums, but yet it features a different, less catchy - perhaps more proggy - and definitely a more somber version of the band. Retrospective have changed their sound, surely. You may prefer their latter music, or their former - but one thing is certain: this is a great album you should not miss! V_Shaft
