It tries to offer a unique musical experience that runs from any preconception about what a metal album should be. Heavy distorted metal riffs, pounding drums and energetic rhythms are mixed with elaborated melodies full of beauty to create this musical journey. This album tells de story of a character called The Odd One Out that will be the guide of the listener through a world of light and darkness in search of self-knowledge, personal growth and, all in all, a place in life.

about

The eyes of The Odd One Out watched the world as if they could see it for the first time. It was painfully obvious; outside the window what once was familiar and friendly now revealed its true nature. Reality seemed to be a rusty engine; rotten by greed, corruption and selfishness. How could it possibly keep on working as old as it was? The misery of many was the only lubricant that kept the machinery on. For too many decades it had malfunctioned. Could it be more obvious?

For a moment those eyes caught a glimpse of the night sky. There, countless stars were shinning; full of hope; full of future. Were they stars? Could they be eyes? They resembled the eyes of the ones willing to make a change. They were so alike to the ones of The Odd One Out´s face. They looked at the world knowing that a change had to be done. They were fully awake now. They were No Longer Blind.

lyrics

1. No Longer Blind:

[Verse]
I feel the rabid winds of change
The youth is due to rise against
The flag of hope will wave again
For those who gave their lives before
The silenced voices of the world
The ones who thought they stood alone
From the ground we rise
Leave fears aside
No longer blind
In the streets we’ll fight
When fire burns bright
To win or to die

They will hear us cry

[Chorus]
Together we fight
The greed of some can’t beat our might
We had enough
We want it we’ll get it
A new world is knocking at the door
Just let it come
Rage burning inside is leading us to a new day
All their lies end today
We’re no longer blind

[Verse]
Silenced no more
We were for too long
The time is still to come
Their world ends today
They no longer lead
We break the chains

Cry
They will hear us cry

[Chorus]
