Each song has its own story. \u2018Garden Of Eden\u2019 has an unusual start, the same goes for the first twist. A man talks about his relation break-up and memories. Various emotions and blames can be heard in the (stacked) vocals and music.<br>\u2018The Letter\u2019 is a particular love song, at the end the violin comes to the forefront beautifully. After this we find the dramatic story \u2018Meadows Of Slience\u2019. It is about a child who is a victim of a bombing, and loses his family. I am touched during the minor played part, followed by intense changes and m\u00e9lange of emotions and impressions. The three-part epic \u2018Lost Horizon (Ghosts Endgame)\u2019 lasts almost 23 minutes. A depressed, unappreciated poet turns his poems into bottle mail. One bottle is found by a mermaid; what happens next is left to the listener to fill in.<br>In terms of lyrics, it is not an easy album, but the stories are sung wonderfully. \u2018Lost Horizon\u2019 contains unusual twists and good mixtures between symphonic prog, rock, and bombastic elements. Good \u2018 food\u2019 for the prog rock lover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">(8\/10) (Progressive Promotion Records)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.maxazine.nl\/2025\/02\/15\/album-recensie-overzicht-tiken-jah-fakoly-the-legendary-pink-dots-en-meer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noreferrer noopener\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"217\" height=\"59\" data-attachment-id=\"8382\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/kessel-tamerus.nl\/Esthers_Blog\/rock\/paul-numi-parallel-lives\/attachment\/maxazine_2022\/#main\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kessel-tamerus.nl\/Esthers_Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Maxazine_2022.png?fit=217%2C59&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"217,59\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Maxazine_2022\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kessel-tamerus.nl\/Esthers_Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Maxazine_2022.png?fit=217%2C59&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/kessel-tamerus.nl\/Esthers_Blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Maxazine_2022.png?resize=217%2C59&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8382\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center;

Ieder nummer heeft zijn eigen verhaal. \u2018Garden Of Eden\u2019 heeft een bijzondere start, dat geldt ook voor de eerste wending. Een man vertelt over zijn relatiebreuk en herinneringen. In de (gestapelde) zang en de muziek zijn diverse emoties en verwijten te horen.<br>\u2018The Letter\u2019 is een apart liefdeslied, op het laatst komt de viool mooi op de voorgrond. Hierna komt het dramatische verhaal van \u2018Meadows Of Slience\u2019. Het gaat over een kind dat slachtoffer is van een bombardement, en zijn familie verliest. Tijdens het klein gespeeld deel word ik geraakt, gevolgd door intense wisselingen en melanges van emoties en indrukken. De driedelige epic \u2018Lost Horizon (Ghosts Endgame)\u2019 duurt bijna 23 minuten. Een depressieve, niet gewaardeerde dichter maakt flessenpost van zijn gedichten. \u00c9\u00e9n fles wordt gevonden door een zeemeermin; wat er dan gebeurt mag de luisteraar zelf invullen.<br>Qua teksten is het geen makkelijk album, maar de verhalen worden mooi gezongen. \u2018Lost Horizon\u2019 bevat bijzondere wendingen en goede melanges tussen symfonische prog, rock, en bombastische elementen. Prima \u201cvoer\u201d voor de prog rock liefhebber.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">(8\/10) (Progressive Promotion Records))<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2018Lost Horizon\u2019 has four songs, including two epics.
