about

I’ve had the music for what became Two Rivers for years. I originally wanted it to be an acoustic track on a Wild Eyes album, but the idea outlived the band. While pulling together material for this album I had originally scrapped the idea of using this because I hadn’t been able to come up with lyrics for it. While listening to a demo of just the music one day the lyrics came to me out of the blue and seemed to literally write themselves like I was some kind of psychic medium.
I wanted the song to end in a chord progression outro that seemed to continue to ascend forever and create a sonic seascape.
I was lucky to get Phil to play drums for the outro as I had spent hours trying to do it myself before realizing that I’m just not that good at drums.

lyrics

Two Rivers

Find yourself beside a river
Flowing through a dream
From a stone where the ripples shimmer
And roll on to the sea
Springtime on the mountain
Sunlight through the trees
Reflection on the water
Says you were there with me
There where two rivers meet
In the fall before the winter
Filled the banks with snow
Riding horses across the river
And on to plains below
Wondered through the valleys
Onward to the sea
The moonlight on the water
As it was meant to be
When two rivers reach the sea

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu

This band definitely covers a lot of ground, but in a good way. Very original and with a few listens they will suck you in. Favorite track is "The Way". Very Mercyful Fate-ish. G-ram74
