Two Of Three: Albedo

We felt nothing, we were nothing. We felt nothing breathing make believe, We craved for something we knew was just a dream. We sought consolation in a fabricated past, We looked for answers in a world without a heart. We felt nothing breathing make believe, We craved for something we knew was just a dream. We sought consolation in a fabricated past, We looked for answers in a world without a heart. We felt nothing, we were nothing. We felt nothing, we were nothing. We were nothing, we’ll rise again We were nothing but rebirth is not the end. We were nothing, we’ll rise again We were nothing but rebirth is not the end.

The Gift 04:40
An unfulfilled touch of perfection A promising glimpse of redemption The sin has been expiated S metamorphosis initiated I dropped the mask And shed my skin A demon lurks underneath Scattering clouds they frame the pictures Pale sunbeams they part the darkness My soul was charred, it felt so blackened But my eyes are wide, wide open I dropped the mask And shed my skin A demon lurks underneath I dropped the mask And shed my skin A demon lurks underneath I thought it was the end of me, but it was only the beginning…

I want... I want my promises to keep. I want my futures to believe. I want her hands for me to hold And I want me to want it more. I’ve got nothing, I’ve got nothing at all (for you). I’ve got nothing, I’ve got nothing at all (for you). I’ve got nothing, I’ve got nothing at all (for you). I’ve got nothing, I want it all (for you). I want to lift this pain off my chest. I want as good as the rest. I want to fill this hole in my soul And I want me to want it more. I’ve got nothing, I’ve got nothing at all (for you). I’ve got nothing, I’ve got nothing at all (for you). I’ve got nothing, I’ve got nothing at all (for you). I’ve got nothing, I want it all (for you). I’ve got nothing, I’ve got nothing at all (for you). I’ve got nothing, I’ve got nothing at all (for you). I’ve got nothing, I’ve got nothing at all (for you). I’ve got nothing, I want it all.

A flash of white And I’m one step closer. A moon-lit night To embrace the answer. No-one in sight I’m a lonesome wanderer. No-one in sight I’m a lonesome wanderer. A violent time for a violent soul A small sacrifice for a greater goal. A violent time for a violent soul A small sacrifice for a greater goal. Pure white.

A click and we're there staring at the horizon we have decided to share Our fate. Illusions turned real Projections of our Will, of our hopes and fears Our brightest dreams. No time for the past No time for what wasn't meant to last Dust to dust. No space for regrets No space for what we will have to forget In this space inside our heads. Our common trait Reptilian instincts still commanding our race Our fear of death Driving us on Pushing science to take us beyond Our human form. No time for the past No time for what wasn't meant to last Dust to dust. No space for regrets No space for what we will have to forget In this space inside our heads. No time for the past No time for what wasn't meant to last Dust to dust. No space for regrets No space for what we will have to forget In this space inside our heads.

about

One year after the successful release of Adrenochrome and its follow-up remix EP, Meathead’s Lost HD, Marco Visconti and Marko Resurreccion are back and ready to unleash the Alchemy Series: three EPs planned to be released no more than six months from each other, an non-stop audio assault that will once again set aflame the alternative dancefloors worldwide with its mixture of old and new influences from the classic sounds of trance to the modern beats of EDM.

Three releases as three are the phases of the Alchemical process, said to transform the lower metals such as lead into gold, and which is nothing else but a veiled allegory of the initiatory path from man to Godhead.

The second phase of the alchemical transformation will be reached on on the eve of 31st October 2014, in time for the pagan festivities of Samhain (also know as Hallowe’en), with Two Of Three: Albedo.

Following the chaos or 'massa confusa' of the Nigredo stage, the alchemist undertakes a purification in Albedo, which is literally referred to as 'ablutio' – the washing away of impurities. In this process, the subject is divided into two opposing principles to be later coagulated to form a unity of opposites or 'coincidentia oppositorum' during Rubedo.
