Across the wonderland they tell the story of the one
Who can control the shapes to her desire
With a power far beyond the reach of man
Carrying a book of spells inside her hands
Magic words over a thousand years foretold
Carry the weight of worlds throughout the ages
"If you look into her eyes under control
You will unlock the power inside the pages"
Come, o sleeper of madness
Give us the light
Read from the page of life
Seven the colours of this grimoire
See how it calls for your sight
Open the pages and read aloud
To get the power divine
If you touch it you might risk your life
The pendulum will sway, planets aligned
Time will stop as the illusion is denied
And the magician laughs on the inside
Search inside and tell me if you stand so high
To look into her eyes with all your being
If you're lucky she will turn and wave good bye
But if you're not then she'll tell you everything

So I can't leave a long enough review to say everything I want. But I will say this, I love this EP. It's a great little follow up to times, and has just enough of a dynamic shift in sound to prove that Smoulder isn't a one trick pony with their first album's formula. This one really plays up the 70s prog aspects (DUST and Manilla Road influences definitely shine through even harder here). It's still Smoulder, don't get me wrong. Just a different side in some ways, all of which are good. playfulpooka
IMHO, one of those albums that catches your attention immediately, but needs a few listens to really appreciate how great it is. Getting addicted guys, really! sachavonkarl74
