Continuous thoughts, is a brilliant track, that manages to accomplish meeting all the genres, with great lyrics, diabolically profound. It encapsulates Lucifer to the full, at least a greater understanding and well-balanced attitude to his perception. How many people turn to the ruler of terra firma, without due deference or consideration, and forget he is an angel after all and has his own rights without being pushed for action on behalf of so many anguished human souls. 3:00 am, follows through into a nice, dark ambient track. Your touch, comes into play in a world where touch can be achieved over great distances through the wonder of technology and the more tenuous connections through the great spirit that surrounds all and permeates all. Nicely profound.
Ficción I is a lovely reverberating ambient track, I love the sound of it. Nice soundscaping. Ficción II continues the atmospherics, adding layers to garnish the dish delectably well. It begins to build slowly, adding harsher guitar sounds, and a touch of voice, into a strong, rhythmic rock track. Nice string work. Sweet suffering comes to mind in the labyrinth of noises. A fine depiction of Lucifer's lair. Fallen maybe, but still proud, as we smoothly drift into Ficción III. The lovely manipulation of sound and rhythm are fantastic, which lends itself to a hellishly good screaming guitar layer and accompanying pulsation of timbre. Great little threesome, work very well together.
Irrumpir is an amazing construction, with full force that is present in the album thus far. It is predominantly a techno, industrial track that works very successfully. Nice breaks from the audio assault, and languid reversals of energy abound. The following track, beyond my linguistic capabilities, En Aguas Rojas (0p0+MAR) makes for an interesting collaboration to listen to. The energy remains and takes on another guise, without losing any of that dark force. Nicely balanced and constructed. Again, an amazing maze of noises and rhythms to entertain the convoluted grey matter and the tacit sense of spirit that we may be in touch with, even within ourselves, or better still shared. Great track.
Mi Reflejo, I don't know about conversations with robots, but that is how most of my human interaction goes, so is that a reflection on me, or the robotic? Probably down to me, it usually is... Difficult to place in terms of genre but I still really like the track. Duh! I don't know, tell me!) Then, the deeply moving Ritual takes place, in a way the focus of the relationship between mortal soul and immortal angel. It beats like a pulsating heart muscle and scatters the vibrations. There is a curious sense that what this track captures, goes on forever in a very essential way, like the beating of a heart sustaining life. Without it, it doesn't work. Without that sense and participation in the ritual of living, what's the point of being. Gorgeous sounds.
Neuron keeps up the activitation of the primal senses, but now we are talking nervously in the corner of our selves, to ourselves, asking what is going on in my head, let alone soul. Most people don't even get that far, with their synapses dedicated to television or some video game that absorbs their fear of living. A lovely ambient darkness pervades all around you, and there is no escape. Then into Hell & Heaven, and let's not forget they are right next door to each other, there is no in-between apart from our own daily and nightly delusions. Very easily a techno track, almost worthy of a whirling dervish. It sounds like an argument, but there is no solution, bar perception of the reality that will forever shift and move. No evasion, just honesty. That is too much to comprehend, even for the more enlightened amongst us. Just go with the flow. I have a friend who dreamt the same, with her own symbology.
Finally, we are left with Vivir+Morir. Resonating profoundly, it is motivated by a nice, loose percussive layer. Then the organs kick in, just to underline the point of the whole album. One of my favourite instruments. It is replaced by a gentle tinkling of piano, then they conjoin to play with each other like old friends. God cannot really disown Lucifer, for He is an inescapable part of Him. To sum up, I concur the first track is top notch musical creativity, but will be deferential and say that the whole album is absolutely fantastic work. And, thank you for sharing such profound beauty and soulfulness. More magic...
