For The Love Of Art And The Making (Beyond Twilight´s third release) is the most mysterious and complex concept album in music history. 

 I´ve been several months puzzling about it, and I think I´ve found something.

 IMHO, this masterpiece develops 6 CONCEPTS, or layers of concepts, simultaneously: 

 - A first meaning (MYTH), with a storybook that continues where Section X ended, relating a "virtual descent to Hell" somehow inspired in Orpheus and Eurydice and the legend of Ariadne, the Labyrinth and the Minotaur. 

 - Three more meanings (RITE), in witch the structure of the album is related to that of an initiation rite, musical creation and BDSM. 

 - A fifth meaning (MEMORY) that shows us Beyond Twilight´ history, in the 10º anniversary of its foundation. 

 - And a sixth meaning (TRUTH AND JUSTICE), about the falsehood of Jorn Lande´s words about Section X.

 But there´s more, much more: number 6 as a symbol; baroque emblems; Stravinski and Liszt; Paul Dunbar´s poetry; egyptian goddess Ma´at; a curious affair with The Hunchback of Notre Dame…

 I encourage you to visit http://flam.blogspot.es/ and take a look. (Sorry: in Spanish)
