Lute FP Been spinning this for a week and I still don't know how to describe it. Progressive in its approach to songwriting and pacing, with a very 70s rock styling. But something just makes this stand out as its own thing and I can't put my finger on it, but I am totally digging it.

In a big mansion surrounded by wealth lived a king called Mida For entire nights He drowned in wine He craved all the time But in the woods one day The god of nature found him promising him power and gold all to realize his dream Anything he touched Turned into gold The golden King deceived by his greed forever alone no more desire to feed In vain he implored the god crying for many days sitting on his wicked throne but no one came in his aid He melted with his castle Sinking in his lust and before the new dawn everything had became dust

Evil Box 04:11
You’ve been created to satisfy the gods to ruin the mankind and all this world Beneath his sight You betrayed his trust Opening the evil box the day became night nothing was the same just a human shame As you lifted the lid dark spirits came out throwing the human race in a age of pain and shouts As you lifted the lid dark spirits came out throwing the human race in a age of pain and shouts

A piece of mind has fallen words of pain have gone and you have flown so high the rays have taken down my son Trapped in silver wings he crossed the silent sky while the sun cut the wind falling in the sea,he died Too high and too fast he embraced the dawn Icarus on broken wings He would never shine He touched the infinite while he was insane but it was all an illusion it was all in vain his face buried by hope his eyes faded away to the power of the sun he was taken away Too high and too fast he embraced the dawn Icarus on broken wings He would never shine Too high and too fast he embraced the dawn Icarus on broken wings He would never shine blinded by his ego immersed in his own lies he felt eternal standing out its last flight Too high and too fast he embraced the dawn Icarus on broken wings He would never shine Too high and too fast he embraced the dawn Icarus on broken wings He would never shine Too high and too fast he embraced the dawn Icarus on broken wings He would never shine Too high and too fast he embraced the dawn Icarus on broken wings He would never shine

Castaway of my thoughts banned in endless seas all around the great void loneliness you are with me the beginning of the end
8.
I climbed the mountain before it was time searching for the forbidden that held us trapped behind making us fool and blind they used to forge our fears so I picked their mortal tears Crossing the eternal paths and when the sun went down I dared to face their wrath I stole their secret provoking his hate I saved the mankind but I changed my fate I stole their secret provoking his hate I saved the mankind but I changed my fate leaden skies upon me a sense of sadness that bring me to madness Trapped in this haze My world is ablaze caged on this storm I still haven’t made return Bound at this rock Digging inside me Fading too slowly I’m no longer free I stole their secret provoking his hate I saved the mankind but I changed my fate I stole their secret provoking his hate I saved the mankind but I changed my fate

Somniloquist 02:49
lying on his thoughts a young man disowned themself rejecting all the world craving even more embodied perfection layed down on the edge looking at his own reflection and then he forgets living the dream just isolating him what did It mean? he forgot the world he forgot the time watching his face in a state of grace And in the deep night he killed all the light but when he tried to speak with his own reflex he realized to be mortal a piece of human flesh he didn't understand so he tried to touch his hand seized with a sense of fear struck the water and disappeared confused he wept for long without name that belonged he walked for many days without knowing his race it became a torment madness killed his mind living the dream just isolating him what did It mean? he forgot the world he forgot the time watching his face in a state of grace And in the deep night he killed all the light

Close your eyes and feel the darkness disown your soul fear my words and so in this night I’ll tame your life in the depths of this gloom join your wicked groom mocked by her faith trapped in this game the love and the hate would be the same the love and the hate would be the same mocked by her faith trapped in this game the love and the hate would be the same
12.
Everything has changed Wars rage on The hunger for power Have ruined this world Fathers have spoken Words dissolved in wind The greed enslaves Every human breath Up there the crimson sky Seems to be died It was the desire To feed your own lies They fought for hypocrisy With swords and knives But the pain's still written On your blank eyes The courage belongs to past You live a whole life Just pray your gods And thanks mankind Inheritance of gods this wasted land will be destroyed hand by hand

about

"The Mountain of Fate" is the first concept album of the italian progressive project Oberon. The concept is based on the most famous greek myths, re-evaluated in a modern way: every feeling and every meaning from these stories revolves around the Mount Olympus, a symbol of extreme negativity (if it regarded as an obstacle) or great positivity (like a sort of liberation from all evil, once reached the top). It's a journey of meditation through issues such as greed, the search of the impossible, freedom, narcissism, hate, war, Spleen and many more induced by the nowadays society.
Self-produced; we have chosen a dark old school mix to give a seventies touch to the songs.


The Climb to the Mountain Begins.
