lyrics
I am enthraled, mesmerized,
And with these pages, paralyzed...
Albeit relaxed, undaunted,
This house feels haunted...
Advanced it is,
Flawless it seems,
I wish they could see,
that's not all it needs! / that it's not all it needs!
A gentle breeze wrapped my face
as I open a new book.
Something direful I discovered,
A whole history I mistook.
I can't afford to think about you,
Why would you do this to your home?
It is something I can't get through,
Like a king without a throne!
The bleakness,
It saddens me...
"The Changeless",
It blinds thee...
My brain has casted me away,
The path is not over.
A new future I envision
Because after all "Home" is my lover!
Advanced it is,
Flawless it seems,
I wish they could see,
that's not all it needs! / that it's not all it needs!
A grand deception I've won
With this city's obscenity!
And with these pages, paralyzed...
Albeit relaxed, undaunted,
This house feels haunted...
Advanced it is,
Flawless it seems,
I wish they could see,
that's not all it needs! / that it's not all it needs!
A gentle breeze wrapped my face
as I open a new book.
Something direful I discovered,
A whole history I mistook.
I can't afford to think about you,
Why would you do this to your home?
It is something I can't get through,
Like a king without a throne!
The bleakness,
It saddens me...
"The Changeless",
It blinds thee...
My brain has casted me away,
The path is not over.
A new future I envision
Because after all "Home" is my lover!
Advanced it is,
Flawless it seems,
I wish they could see,
that's not all it needs! / that it's not all it needs!
A grand deception I've won
With this city's obscenity!

Fantasy progressive rock is not something I'd ever thought of. Yet Foreign Land, especially the Foreign Land track itself, transported me straight into an unknown, magical fantasy world.

Whilst delivering well crafted music, unless you focus on the lyrics, you could miss the story lines. This is the last of the war trilogy, so subtle ,but so poignant. Superb music with broken road and Holding On ,on permanent repeat. Listen and become enthralled. Top quality song writing and musicianship.10/10

As with previous releases this is a solid album from start to finish which continues the storyline, themes and signatures perfectly. 'Enigma' and 'Another Same' are on par with or superior to many commercial offerings by established prog artists. The Waters, Wilson and Hayward influences shine through once more but I also hear song writing very much in the style of Difford and Tilbrook, 'Trough of War' & 'Another Same' probably being the best examples. These chaps are the real deal!
