    Individually numbered Digipak CD SIGNED BY THE BAND with 8 page lyric booklet.

    Recorded and mixed mid-2012 at Earth Terminal Studios.

    In an effort to conceptually top “Earth” the only option was to produce an album about the life cycle of the Universe itself. At least it started out with that intention, i.e. lyrics exploring big bang to heat death, but it gets a little more philosophical along the way considering the path mankind might take in its evolution.

    Much of the philosophical side was inspired by the short story “The Last Question” by Isaac Asimov. Our own take on the conclusion from that is embodied in the final track: Outside Time, which was the last song written for the sessions and completed only just before recording began.

about

The leading theory for how the Universe is projected to end is simply that it will expand until all energy dissipates and the average temperature reaches absolute zero. Such a state will be a comparable “nothingness” to the initial state of “everythingness” prevalent at the Big Bang. Perhaps they are one and the same. In any event, this possible future is a very long way off, measured on a scale of a trillion trillion years.

lyrics

From dim remains
Of the last dying sun
An ancient remnant
Of all that has now gone
Distant age
When the stars ceased to shine
New dark era, dawns

There was no reverse
For the arrow of time
Densities disperse; unbroken line
Toward equilibrium
Light is wearing out
Absolute zero

When everything is nothing, the perspective will change
Decay to radiation, like dust on the wind…heat death

Yet, there is glory in oblivion

Approaching the end of time
When the last photon will die
Fading away
Only silence survives

No Omega point
A gradual end
Final dissipation to mute chaos …..heat death!

Twilight in the garden of the Universe
The human cult’s Empire long since bid farewell
All the shades of light, gone from here forever
The moment that is now should be as your last

Consciousness remains awake in the gap
A memory, dormant, in hyperspace

Maximum entropy

Surely they can’t be serious? ... more
