Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   The Tongues of Men and Angels,

is Lyrian's second concept album after the critically acclaimed Nightingale Hall. It is a double album, dealing with man and his Gods, false and falser, and the angels which torment the world. There are nine songs on the two discs, running for over two hours, which will give an indication of the length of some of the compositions, which are closer to short symphonies than long songs. The booklet is of twenty-four pages, packed with curious art and the curiouser lyrics of the song-cycle. The track listing is as follows:    

Disc 1
1)  The Hollow (8:37)
2) Three One-Eyed Gods (26:44)
3) Sick Roses (3:47)
4) The Kingdom of the Enchanter (Panapanthera) (16:27)

Disc 2
1) A  Warning  to Angels (6:21)
2) The Veil Between (17:28)
3) The Shadow of Impus (3:04)
4) Hymn 637: the Seven Tongues  (21:31)
5) The Flight of the Soul (22:24)

There will be a phased release of the album. Physical discs are available (at £9.00) from 1 December  2011 and downloads (at 79 pence per track) from 2 April 2012. You can hear all the music at FargoTube, and extracts at Lyrian's MySpace page.

	Really liking this album a lot, though the male singer can get too much at times. Thankfully, there's a lot of instrumental passages on here!!... Edited by noni - April 01 2018 at 15:05
