v Though I'm curious what is meant by "Dancing on a Flashlight Beam," or whatever the new Lunatic Soul album is called. Doesn't seem to tie into the first two (Impressions aside, which is just over-glorified DVD menu music), so maybe he's off in a new lyrical direction using less symbolism.

@hauzzer - yeah, Duda is actually a gifted lyricist. He often writes using logical paradoxes, idiomatic twists, and vivid polarity. I notice little things like that all the time both with Riverside and Lunatic Soul. Like when he started SLS with a song called "After," then move the listener backwards through an experience and end it with a song called "Before." Song titles like "Near Life Experience" (a twist on a common expression) or made-up words like "Parasomniac." I also noticed on first Lunatic Soul album in the third track (I think) he featured the sound of a grown man crying (and it has a black album cover), and on the second album he juxtaposed it (again, on the third track) with a young baby laughing (and featured a white album cover). So the connection is one of polarity or inverse relationships. You can't convince me that stuff is random.

"Parasomnia" (not "Parasomniac") is not a made-up word btw. It's a group of sleeping disorders that can happend during NREM or REM sleep. NREM ones can include night terrors, sleepwalking, teeth grinding and others.

Sarcasm is active-aggressive, not passive-aggressive. But you're in the right frame of mind.

Well, I wasn't trying to be dick. I was just correcting you in the made-up word thing. If you want to be a dick about it, that's on you.

Very strong lyrics we've got here. If you want to feel this album deeply, you have to read the lyrics, cause it fits to music perfectly.

Godly album. Irretrievably Lost Imagination is one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever made.
