Payne''s Grey were a very talented and unlucky german prog metal band.They released only two albums: a mini cd called infinity in 1991 (re-released in 2000) and kadath decoded in 1995.Kadath decoded is a concept album based off on the dream quest of unknown kadath by hp lovecraft.The album is outstanding and capture the mood and the atmosphere of the lovecraftian''s writings very well.The album is perfectly balanced and very original,sometimes it reminds me some early shadow gallery (there is even a flute player here). This is track 10,Nyarlathotep''s reception.Here are the lyrics: There is more evil in the lesser ones than in the greater. This is the problem with the middle management. Behold ! Assured dreamer you, above the luminaries in the Aether, You are the one, who has produced the thoughts, which meant So much to them, that now they use your dream, live at this place And - after all, block the way back to your estate. Don''t listen to their sweetest explanation''s woven lace, But go and get it back, and do revive it''s state. As long as endlessrevels last there, So mount this bird bound for the space Between reality and haze Of madness, and turn when cloying notes which sound To please the masses, try you to haunt ! Shun sickly cgrods of candy and yours will be the town Forever set in Golden Dawn ! For you know that your gold and marble city of wonder Is only the sum of what you have seen and loved in youth. This loveliness, moulded, crystallised and polished by years Of memory and dreaming is your terraced wonder of elusive sunsets H.P. Lovecraft Turn, turn to your dreamed city''s sloped height, And yours will be the town, forever bright With solemn melodies so candid, Yours the key too for kep and hand it !
