LUNATIC SOUL

Lunatic Soul is the solo project of the lead singer of Riverside; Mariusz Duda. Do not expect to hear anything like Riverside or anything metal for that matter. This is experimental music it may not even be considered prog outside the fact that prog is experimental in its self. There are no electric guitars and the only distortion comes from a bass guitar. Lunatic Soul is mostly atmospheric with mellow vocals. It may be considered a concept album because the lyrics seem to be about death but, I'm not sure if the songs are connected in any way beyond their subject matter. Mariusz Duda shows his true talent here with his song writing ability. He is obviously influenced by Porcupine Tree but he manages to create music that is quite different from anything Steven Wilson has done. I truly love this CD it has great song writing and a great vibe.
