A divine song deeply resounds in you
A black sun is guiding your steps
At the call of your name, you will be there
Face to nothingness
Your big brown eyes already smile to me
In a lost and stonily expression
Horizon your glance inflamed
Is only ashes
chorus
Eh! I'm looking for you, since a long time
Oh! I'll wait for you, until the end
I believe and I know you are free
Flying as a bird in the night
Flowers spring up from your emerald eye
A golden honey flows down in cascade
Mild winds caress the wheat of plains
Walk, Dance, Fly, Sing!
The deep night coils up all around you
Your silent shadow glides over the waters
All your movements have given birth to the
Ocean Dance
chorus
Your big brown eyes still smile to me
I wait for night, I wait for death
I want to die as a child fall s asleep
To disappear in the sweet light of Dawn
My eyes cry the torrent where I've lost your trace
Only one way snakes down to Blue Valley
Only one voice enchants the wonderful river
Who comes to you to celebrate your race

Thanks to the nice-endof-year-offer I came to fill this gap in my private worm collection (a, pardon me, worm hole, so to speak :-))
Wonderful reminiscence to many good things past (Canterbury, 70s prog, folk rock) with a good sense of humour and great ideas (both in the songwriting & in the arrangements) . Carsten Pieper

agri-math rock? Rural melodic punk?
Christ knows what this is...but its damn good! Great use of 'alternative' instruments and structures to achieve a great instrumental music tinman73

MAGMA s'est autoproclamé comme étant le meilleur groupe de l'univers mais ce titre n'est pas usurpé car il ne fait justement qu'un avec l'univers, il appartient à toutes et tous. Christian Vander pousse cette logique jusqu'au bout dans Kãrtëhl, album dans lequel il n'est plus le seul compositeur — une première depuis Üdü Wüdü ! Il ne s'agit pas d'une grande épopée mais de chansons qui fonctionnent indépendamment, qui peuvent ainsi évoluer en très peu de temps. C'est lumineux, chaud et intense ! Jordan Vauvert

The new live EP by Ryan W. Stevenson's project reminded me, that this debut album must have been gone down the wishlist... If instrumental Canterbury stuff is your thing, this should be a no-brainer. Firmly rooted in the past (late 60s, 70s), nevertheless with a fresh sound. Guests incude The Tangent's Andy Tillison and Soft Machine's Theo Travis. Carsten Pieper
