Lights 04:12

Floating, drifting, fading memories Riding, voicing, screaming silence Always on the run The fortune by our side Here on the tide Then we disappear And nobody’s here Just faded years We are ready to feel something We are fetching falling wonders Turn the pages of the story Win the races catch the glory Squeezing, living, fully this time Grip it in one’s hand don’t let it slip Always in the sun Another photograph Another laugh Then, shivers of fear The days are going away And all is gray We are ready to feel something We are fetching falling wonders Turn the pages of the story Win the races catch the glory Don’t drive your heart behind Gaze the vault of the sky Wash away your pain Oh, now open wide your eyes Till you meet the light wipe away this rain We are ready to feel something We are fetching falling wonders Turn the pages of the story Win the races catch the glory

Waiting for tomorrow Yet the same way, every day For a faith to follow For a moment flew away Through the shadows of the future In this world or somewhere else You will find a quiet place To feel the whole universe Living, growing, living Never waking up from your own nightmares Dying, drowning, dying In the deep wave of the ocean, falling Screaming loud and shouting When it drags you to the drift forever Pushing on your heart until you feel eternal pain and fever Another day, another run Without a faith, and with no sun Now the cold wind of the morning Tears away this misery In the night I’m falling Into the arms of Harmony Where’s the Lighthouse of my present? Bliss of my reality Don’t you leave me fall down In the abyss of my fears Living, growing, living Never waking up from your own nightmares Dying, drowning, dying In the deep wave of the ocean, falling Screaming loud and shouting When it drags you to the drift forever Pushing on your heart until you feel eternal pain and fever Another day, another run Without a faith, and with no sun Far from the brightness of this world Next to thy hell and to its dark shores

Islands Of Madness 05:31
lyrics

On our way back from the glory We’re escaping, sleeping roughly Fearful nightmares full of rain Night is freezing, sunk our sail In desolation weak signs of life now Our hope is smiling, joyfully sings In the kingdom of nothing We hold the course of the illusion Through the islands of madness Our darkest phase of confusion Not a dream about your island The ship is drifting, dark and silent The ship is drifting, dark and silent Ploughing oceans like a phantom Through unknown ways, vague and stranger In desolation weak signs of life now Our hope is smiling, blissfully singing In the kingdom of nothing We hold the course of the illusion Through the islands of madness We’ve crossed the lines to confusion

Truth Lies ... 05:00

Far away from here a river Is flowing among the fears Same as before but also Like never before Tough and wild the fight I fought The angel was stronger than me Dawn came to tell time has come, But I’m changed now I’m free All of the pages thrown off and all of the Paths walked in moonless dull nights and all Sweet leaves I’ve been trampling on and all of the Times I’ve been searching you, searching you All of the seas I went thru’ and all of the Rhymes on the melodies dreamt and all Images drawn into my mind and all of the Times I’ve been dreaming of you Water’s running through Memories and stones Gloomy sky above Remember remembrance Deep inside my dreams High on winter chill Deep behind my eyes High over the skies Deep over the edge High over the edge Truth lies despite lies All of the pages thrown off and all of the Path walked in moonless dull nights and all Sweet leaves I’ve been trampling on and all of the Times I’ve been searching you All of the seas I went through and all of the Rhymes on the melodies dreamt and all Images drawn into my mind and all of the Times I’ve been dreaming of… Forever blind, I will move Since ever blind I My mind’s confused and bright clear My feet, they know the way Just like a thin golden leaf Shining bright In spite of towering storms Truth on bottom will lie

I’d want to be forever Like a shadow in a mirror To get lost in a river Across the lands of freedom Wonderful magician Give me just an illusion With your divine fingers Show your tricks for this season Shine, please, one more time Put to silence this whispers Rock me with your rhymes Till you make me dream Waive your hands all over Rise ‘em to the summit Teach me all you know, brother ‘Cause my heart is fading You wonderful wizard Give me one more illusion With your divine power Play your show for a season Shine another day For my greatest desire Drive me on your way Till the center of fire

Beyond A Lifetime 05:32
lyrics
buy track
You will live again beyond a lifetime You will leave a sign feeding in our minds All this really Just a frame that we live Wolfing ourselves down and just leaving no Way out to our fantasy No, it’s not in the faith you need No, it’s not in the end that you’ll die! You will still move ahead Into vastness of that sacred sea Maybe into the flames You will grow as a free man in a new destiny You will live again beyond lifetime You will leave a sign feeding in our minds All those red sparks around: Just the few things you’ve found Hatred after hatred all the people loose Balance for their minds and dreams No, it’s not in the faith what you need No, it’s not in the end that you’ll die! You will still move ahead Into vastness of that sacred sea Maybe into the flames You will grow as a free man in new destiny

Tides Of My Soul 06:45
lyrics

I’ve never known laugh before And I can’t cry anymore, oh no! I search for reasons to live Where void’s too deep to break free – to scream The tides of my soul Are dragging me away Affecting my mind Making my heart so afraid Another rain day on me I cannot stand here to see, to live A new deafening silence And no more human presence – oh no The tides of my soul Take me so far away Destroying my mind Making my eyes so blind Stillness of confusion Lonely poor tricks of the reason bursting Lightning, waiting Sadness of the moment Evil touch, heartrending lament I am standing alone The tides of my soul Move up and down Are dragging me away From all these sounds Destroying my mind Holes in my head Making me so blind So dull and sad The tides of my soul Move up and down What’s right what is good In our world? I’m scared by these times Tears on my breast Is that glory mine? No no no my friend!

King (Of The Rain Of Tomorrow) 04:54
lyrics
buy track
After the passage of five hundred moons Here comes the young man to cure all our wounds Over and over he roamed through the years Tonight he rest quietly forgetting the tears Riding through the story in a flash of glory Come on, leave a trace of yourself! Life is just a lightning, lasting for a moment Tricks within a mirage, but why? Dig into the fighting and brand deeply the memory Only you can do it so well Play the game to rise up, keep the wound wide open You’re redeeming this world from now Magical amazement, hero for a season Give another past to the earth Break the chains wherever, let us live forever Infusing the braveness you have King of the reign of tomorrow Haven’t you found what you need? Over the rise, maybe choking your hate You will pursue so proudly the fate Never give up, little soldier Fight every night, every day Give back the pride to the folks of the world Don’t surrender, reach your highest goal Here, on the shores of the time before There is no more truth that makes you free It shines like the silver and gold it shines The frame of unknown insanity He is about the return here Out, on the land without a sun We’re waiting for something Sure something will come! Oh, am I dreaming or not today? I feel to deliver out my soul So, I am listening to what you say My heart at the limit of a fall Those lands need your guidance We’ll follow you there Oh, this is the last chance Toll loudly the bell! King of the reign of tomorrow Haven’t you found what you need? In battle field there’s no dread, there’s no hate That’s what your honour will demonstrate Never give up, little soldier Fight every night, every day Give back the pride to the folks of the world Don’t surrender, reach your highest goal

Pain After Pain 05:35

Far away, far away Night and day, day and night We escape on a wave Like a frame of light in the sky What is there? What is that? Feeble flame on a grave Not entirely satisfied With this life: it’s always a fight! Pain after pain I loose myself away Slave to my mind I try to run behind Oh, you have to believe me I’m trying to be something But the void is wrapping me quickly And erases me Hardest day, longest day Runs away, far away From your time, from these lies Look around, high over your town! In a cradle, in a cradle Maybe sleeping, perhaps dreaming Like a child carried by tide Hard and wild, the storm shall arrive! Pain after pain I loose myself away Slave to the time I try to escape behind Hey, you have to believe me I’m trying to feel something But the void is wrapping me quickly And erases me I’m flying forever smiling And the wind’s freezing all around me Rain’s falling over that mountain Over this endless wait Hey! Hey you have to believe me I’m trying, trying and trying to feel something To be something Void is wrapping me quickly And erases me

We March, We Fail 06:53
lyrics

A river flows between my eyes And draws the line of no return Storm’s arriving from the sky A dull sound breaks my ears Rain’s falling down and… Will you let me fly again? Oh no! You leave me here in shame! Oh look! We’re still so weak to live We’re still so tired and frail And maybe the hope’s too far We march, we fail! From the seven seas of time We look the morning rising up But the wrath of God is blind And is coming from the fog From the clouds above and… Would you let me try again? Oh no! You leave me die in pain Oh look! We’re still so weak to live We’re still so tired and frail And maybe the aim’s too far We march, we fail!

about

ADRAMELCH - a name enthused by admirers of Progressive Metal since decades! But this is just the beginning, because soon enough more music lovers will join the praise, as this Italian band is ready to open a new chapter in their legendary history!

In 1988 ADRAMELCH released their fabulous debut »Irae Melanox« and became a cult band - despite the fact that they split up quite soon. After the musicians found together again in 2004 they were digging lost treasures for release on next years' sophomore album »Broken History«. They finally recorded these songs, that could not have been released due to the untimely death of the band.

But it was not satisfying enough for ADRAMELCH to just polish their old repertoire, it was also a question of honour to deliver new songs to the fans. But how would these "new" ADRAMELCH sound? How would these new tunes, that were created more than 20 years after the cult works from the eighties, turn out to be? We are just about to find out the answer to this thrilling question, as the band has just completed their third masterpiece »Lights From Oblivion«!

Of course - and more or less unavoidable - this new album sounds different to the predecessors from the past, but is still clearly to be identified as craft from the hands of ADRAMELCH. Just the unique voice of Vittorio Ballerio would be enough to distinguish this group among million others. In addition we can always find that characteristic style of composing songs like a personal fingerprint for the band.

Supported by a clear and breathing production the music of ADRAMELCH sounds nowadays more manifold than ever, has a more rocking drive, allows melancholic-meditative moments, without losing its' down-to-earth and heavy base. Above all that typical triumphant and anthem-like charakter of ADRAMELCH has bigger effect than before, making »Lights From Oblivion« simply addictive. The mastering, that took place in the world-famous "Finnvox"-studios helped the creation of a powerful and dynamic sound without covering these vital fine details.

With their new album ADRAMELCH did not take the easy path by copying themselves, but developed their style with a great sense of phantasy, which gives them any possibilities for the future to come. With »Lights From Oblivion« they will inspire their present fans as well as reaching new listeners, that were not used to the band before. This comes because ADRAMELCH prove in 2012 once again, that they are one of these precious phenomena, that music history very rarely bears!
