1.	1 REMAIN IN LIGHT - Dead Alaska 03:42	lyrics	buy track
Values of today / the insanity daze / are already / at the gates of our will Walking through the park / the arranged serenity / cuts the wrists of / all our urban decay Semi-dead in suits / with a stare like a pain / wake me up / or am I just out of line? Ashes from the North / show the size of it all / halls and waiting / wires and numbers delayed Ηistory in vain / laughing somewhere away / grimy flakes of dust / through signs of success Immigrants are bought / by the new Pharaohs /dogmas and new loans / see the story of man Desert and the wind roaming over the sea / See the wave of change, cash & crash & a flash/ Motion-pictures on a screen far on dead Alaska.
2.	2 REMAIN IN LIGHT - Burning Stage 04:40	lyrics	buy track
Real or unreal it seems to be the same / tragically my conscience now I have to blame A concrete hell deserted anger dominates / a blood shed scenario of tormented fates Anguish and loneliness elements of fear / a freaky burning stage seems to be so near A sea of darkened colours my heart’s painted black The main actor collapses unable to react Nights of endless torture nights of despair / into broken mirror my destiny I state Brutally awakened I face reality / the purified remains of my sanity Deadly dreams a broken heart /deadly dreams stabbed and ragged
3.	3 REMAIN IN LIGHT - New North 04:44	lyrics	buy track
Daydreaming in the half-light / Hazy thoughts of current state Down below hear the city / Humming endlessly in vain A billion wired conversations / Losing purpose on the way Hear the news from old Shanghai / And statistics of a change Permafrost for all the senses / Empty stations in the East I’m searching through the wire for a new meaning I fail to understand what it means to have virtual friends Weather forecast for remoteness / Chinese cargo’s sail through ice Read a book about tomorrow / And the shadow of a drought Trading copper down under / Selling styling from the north Mountains standing where they used to / While the numbers multiply See the old world rapid crumble / Learn the patterns of the storm
4.	4 REMAIN IN LIGHT - Subconscious Lust 08:51	lyrics	buy track
Ethereal objects vanishing memories /pagan dance subconscious lust In desert internal plains / that’s where the obscure is hidden Far away from digital graveyards / beyond your pathetic virtual reality Has surpassed your strangled dreams / has vanquished you untold desires Unnatural shadows empty visions / hellish nights blood stained idols Broken promises immature oaths / horrifying battlefields all doomed and gone Monuments made of tortured flesh / plastic heroes sodomized by their spiritual fathers Cold eternal darkness that’s where they ‘re hidden /mayhem of sheep defeat of the unchosen Fear and pain can’t you see / total death all around you

Instrumental track - no lyrics
6.	6 REMAIN IN LIGHT - Poem in Sepia 04:32	lyrics	buy track
mmersion in light / despite the pouring rain / The warmth of my mind / in this cold white space An arcade of might / streaming out of pain / The peace that you find / when you quit the race Immersion in light / in this darkened world / impressions and dreams / blurry through the haze The splendour of frost / on a winter’s dusk / a stare down the lane / soft sound of the rain Reflections of youth / in the pure white snow / a shimmering ray / on the morning dew Aversion to fight / mind forms that you must ban / Insistence upon / the texture of our dreams The echoes of thoughts / revolve around the sun / The aura of Zeus / breeds the internal beams Disperse of all fear / but don’t forget to breathe / Just open a sense / at this bright new realm All sorrow must go / in the aftermath / The moon’s standing still / your powers all agleam Connections of truth / embrace the afterglow / The haste’s immature / near is a life so pure

fault line
by October Burns Black

supported by 8 fans who also own “Splinters in Arcadia”

New wave of Gothic Rock at it's finest. This band has top level talent from well renowned acts involved so wasn't the least bit surprised upon hearing the opening track. If you miss late 80's to mid 90's gothic rock bands, I can't recommend this one enough. m4rkos1334

It's so hard to pick just one favourite track. The whole album is just so magical, so special! It's like a warm shroud of enveloping, nourishing darkness. Onyx Tomb

Two Worlds Collide
by October Burns Black

supported by 7 fans who also own “Splinters in Arcadia”

First full lenght album by the band, preceded by the two excellent EP's 'Fault Line' and 'Reflections'. In line with their now characteristic sound and influences, October Burns Black deliver a great collection of tracks whose spell is impossible to resist. Classy and classic gothic rock at it's best.
