FDJ (Desert Psychlist) Top notch musicians laying down a bedrock of twisty/bendy groove behind a strong and distinctive vocal, the result … a very tasty dish of sophisticated sounding stonerized prog served up with a side order of swirling heavy psych.

lloydd This three piece band out of Cyprus have made a very strong recording. Strong vocals, heavy riffs and solid musicianship make this psychedelic journey a blast. Favorite track: Thinker's Cave.

Paramnesia 06:25
The light reflects on stone There’s war inside my mind Living in its dreams I’ll wake up dead I cannot tell why This truth is only lies I breathe the dust and then I scream my name Here the soil is dry It’s the earth of sea and sky Here the mountains never touched the land Have you ever felt The lights deep in the night? Can’t you see you’re lonely on your road? Trees stand in the heat Their shades I’ve long forgotten A dawn will mark the day I’ll pay for this I will touch the sky The sky that lies below And time will shift around me once again
2.
Go 06:14
Trapped into decay Bound in a fortress of your sun Breathing through a pray Impulsive choice is all you have Live through all your pain Until your spirit will be numb Stay and act the same It seems to be your only card Go live the burning days What has been always true The groove, her lips, the haze Those things that make you Men have stayed the same The old, the new and those unborn Losing to their days Their past and futures all are gone Go live the burning days What has been always true The groove, her lips, the haze Those things that make you Stay there in your cage And you’ll be gone before you start Leave and save the day This is your last and only chance

The Dive 05:10
I feel the fever rising in my head I’m watching at the sun that dives And waiting for those two green eyes I’ve been standing next to summer’s verge With ice and fire in my hands While leaning on this mountain’s edge You’ll never walk my way again Your madness on me in every turn I’d love to watch you trying to see What I have felt, what I believe The spectrum shines across the naked earth Cuts through the soul I left behind There will be no regrets this time The day has fallen yet I won’t return And I’m unable to forget The blues that made up all those lies. You’ll never walk my way again Your madness on me in every turn I’d love to watch you trying to see What I have felt, what I believe
4.
The riddle often will come true Our faded understanding Oh man you‘ve come to save again Oh man you‘ve come to save again It’s like the ashes that will burst In flames that change the seasons A change that no one’s seen come through A change that no one’s seen come through The mind that matters over you Will bleed our satisfaction The pleasure‘s tasteless on the run The pleasure‘s tasteless on the run
5.
Fervor 05:02
She has the rain that I have never forgotten The morning star that has shown me the way Deep in her smoke I keep forgetting my name I love her sunset, I’ve been waiting too long It’s all those things that I have taken for granted That sent my spirit to the abyss of the sea Lost in her sound time shifts and its gone It feels like burning from dusk until dawn Oh how I miss to be I miss to be so free now Why don’t you set me free Make me believe that you can set me free
6.
North 07:33
Growing desire for vice and flair Ghost around for who you once cared Catching the night’s chance to carouse Eminent presence, forgotten muse I’ll never tell I’ll never speak Your peace of mind I kept the aura that decides I’ll never be the flame that dies Staying aflame, beating your scar Rolling the scenes that once got you far Scraping the joys drawn on your door Shattered to pieces in one single blow I’ll never tell I’ll never speak Your peace of mind I kept the aura that decides I’ll never be the flame that dies Streets for north, of promise I take House on fire you want to escape Rescue is near in secrets you keep Play the game that fixes your need

Island 04:55
Dark again and all we think about is summer nights Feeling the burden, the island’s future past There’s a tide of water and the waves will take us somewhere far Come the heat we take the day like it’s our last We’ll wake again With the moon of tomorrow And when the time is right We will return Strolling on sands, painting stories on our yellow minds Liquor in games, figures showing us the way Falling to bits thinking of the journey ahead Who could have known that the night is still so young? We’ll wake again With the moon of tomorrow And when the time is right We will return
8.
Watch the pieces falling On borrowed time they were made to breathe And the dice are rolling Deep in some basement they decide their will Led and complacent An ancient figure of themselves they see Boasting misdirection Dictates the vision of all they’ll be Perforated meaning Guiding existence in an endless rule Watch, consume, believing That in the mob there can’t exist no fool A story of the past From the future; our name on it Shadows paint beliefs on walls under the day A story of the past From the future; our name on it Freedom's born of lust Live on, live on and turn it I’ve been searching out for so long For shattered clues, in time and space I’ve been reaching out for so long To see beyond, beyond this place I’ve been raising this for so long, Revealing lies, that changed the game I’ve been searching out for so long, But circled out, which is the same It’s a story of the past From the future; our name on it Freedom's born of lust Live on, live on and turn it
