Well... I'll get back on my feet again tomorrow Nothing seems to kill me anymore My heart's not made of stone, no one wants to be alone I hope one day you'll reap just what you've sown While trying to remember where I come from Trying to keep my feet above the ground Playing with the colours of a rainbow Elevate myself above the clouds Above the clouds Didn’t mean to hurt your feelings Nothing ever goes I can’t seem to get it right And it only goes to show That nothing ever changes And nothing stays the same You might want to try and save me Then you let me drown again I’m trying to remember where I come from Trying to keep my feet above the ground Playing with the colours of a rainbow Elevate myself above the clouds Above the clouds So here I am again with all my baggage I’d disappear if that could set you free But nothing ever changes And nothing stays the same So, don’t you try and save me ‘cause I don’t think you’ll ever can I’m trying to remember where I come from Trying to keep my feet above the ground Playing with the colours of a rainbow Elevate myself above the clouds Above the clouds

Setting sail for the Sea of Darkness I’ve lost friends along the way All alone, feeling helpless, with no tears left to cry Black the sky, lost in silence, prepare to say goodbye There were times when it felt like your voice could rock the stars It showed a way for us to dream, a way to heal our scars Setting sail for the Sea of Darkness I’ve lost friends along the way All that’s left is sound of sadness You can hear amongst the waves No one knew where it came from, not until the end Your cry for help was an anthem but your wound could never mend Setting sail for the Sea of Darkness I’ve lost friends along the way Find a reason when all is madness When there’s nothing left to say All alone in this Sea of Darkness But my friends will come and stay Someone says that there’s no tomorrow Please tell me why I’m here today?

Ozymandias 06:06
A reign of sand, A long lost king His past is gone with the wind What does remain? We’ll never learn... We shine like candles and yet we burn Lost in time like pearls in the sand Like tears in the rain, dust in your hand Your temples will fall, your embers turn cold Shadows will linger as dreams will grow old Lost in time like pearls in the sand Like tears in the rain, dust in your hand

Upside Down 05:47
Some say he also did good things, well I don’t understand How those idiots led this place to ruins, their heads buried in sand Can you tell what is right or wrong? While you’re upside down Can you tell me how you see the world now you’re upside down? Fuck you, I won’t do what you told me, I’ll see you upside down Will you see things in a new perspective, hanging upside down? Feeding hate won’t ever end up well, it will tear us apart Your rotten roots will be your undoing, we all knew right from the start Can you still tell what is right or wrong? While you’re upside down Can you tell me how you see the world now you’re upside down? Fuck you, I won’t do what you told me, I’ll see you upside down Will you see things in a new perspective, hanging upside down? You are never gonna change my mind, never gonna back down Fuck you, I won’t do what you told me, I’ll see you upside down Can tell what is right or wrong? While you’re upside down Can you tell me how you see the world now you’re upside down? Fuck you, I won’t do what you told me, I’ll see you upside down Will you see things in a new perspective, hanging upside down?

You dream yourself away, you keep the world at bay You’re running out of time, your future’s on the line The things you used to say, reminders of the pain, You’re waiting for her, just waiting for her You dream yourself away, a desert with no rain Awaiting for her, awaiting for her An eagle’s nest away, you stretch towards your fate Awaiting for her, you’re waiting for her. Satori in Sonora Satori in Sonora Satori in Sonora Satori in Sonora The eyes that faced the light, the clock that stopped the time, Awaiting for her, awaiting for her The hands that spilled the wine, the one that’s left behind Awaiting for her, awaiting for her Satori in Sonora Satori in Sonora Satori in Sonora Satori in Sonora

Crucify 09:37
Walk away from the places you’ve got hurt, From the voices and the dirt that you once knew... Look away but don’t forget the one who smiled, Don’t forget the one who cried with you... Crucify... crucify my love... Hide away, hide the colour of your pain But there’s nowhere left to hide, you’re here again Find a way, I won't always be that strong, Find the will to carry on for when I’m gone Crucify... crucify my love... And now the clouds are gone, the time is almost gone Come spread your wings again, You’re ready to move on Let me stay, you would never be alone I’ll be waiting by the phone, but you’ll never call I would never hurt you babe Wouldn’t hurt you even if you’ve hurt me so bad And that’s all I’ve got to say.... Crucify... crucify my love And now the clouds are gone, the time is almost gone Come spread your wings again, You’re ready to move on

about

“A Glass Full of Karma” is the title of our second album (our third studio work if we’re counting the acoustic episode of “Naked Roots” in 2018).
The title has a direct connection to the videoclip of the single “Above the Clouds” that anticipated the album, where a charming goddess/enchantress is preparing and serving us a glass of her potion… That potion is Karma, it is what we are meant for, but also what got us together in a band in order to write and play music as a team, it’s what united these five musicians after their long creative wandering around the musical playground. Each one of us has brought his own personal ingredient to the mix and this new album is where the Band blends in the best way… what can certainly be said about this work is that we’ve reached a better balance when compared to the past and our hope is this can be heard in the final product which we are very proud of.
Many glasses have been filled and consumed during the making of this record and Karma also returns as a theme in the lyrics, from the escapism of “Above the Clouds” to the fate of the people that are no longer with us in “Sea of Darkness”, from the decline of civilizations in “Ozymandias” to the inglorious epilogue of dictatorships in “Upside Down”, to the entropy of a tormented love in “Crucify”.
The album is composed of 8 songs for a length of about 45 minutes, It has been produced by Nagual and Alberto Callegari, who recorded and engineered it at Elfo Studio. Once again, the publishing label is OrzoRock Music which has been supporting us since the publication of “Tat Tvam Asi” in 2017.
Musically, when compared to our previous work, this is a more choral record. It has been positively influenced by the introduction of the keyboards in the writing sessions and it’s the result of songs which have arrived in the studio already well defined in their structure and character. This album has had a relatively shorter gestation period compared to its predecessor and most of the songs were composed and developed during 2019… the music genre opened up from hard rock to classic rock and progressive rock, thus granting us much more freedom of expression. Alberto Callegari of Elfo Studio, our “sixth member”, has been able to brilliantly and patiently understand the evolution of the band and really helped getting the best out of us.
“A Glass Full Of Karma” was recorded between March and December 2019 and, in addition to Alberto’s collaboration, welcomes Sara Battisteri on backing vocals in a couple of songs, “Upside Down” and “Satori in Sonora”.

The “Above the Clouds” videoclip, that anticipated the album, was filmed and directed by Niccolò Savinelli inspired by a concept of the band. Despite the fact that the lyrics of the song are telling stories of personal crisis and detachment/escape from reality, the video follows a different path… even if the main theme remains the elevation “above the clouds”... The story suggests an initiation rite and the transfiguration of the members of the band by the hand of the leading actress (Cezàra Potlog). Worth reporting is the presence of familiar faces (Davide “Topino” Costantini and Enrico “Kurma” Curotti, the guys in the old Mercedes-Benz 220D) that connect the plot of the video to a previous one released three years ago (“Let It Go” directed by Teemu Nikki)... Whoever might remember that video should be able to link the events… truth to be told this new one is actually a prequel of the other. The scenes were filmed in Nibbiano (PC) both in the Tidone riverbed and in some indoor locations kindly provided by the association “Confluenze”.
The album cover, which portrays Cezàra Potlog, has been created thanks to the wonderful photography of Matteo Belli (www.matteobellistudio.com) who followed the band live, in the studio and during the shooting of the video.
