*Lyrics:* Careless speeds of light to nowhere Pass so near no room to grow there Multiplying moonstruck rabid zoo No direction weavers waver Asking darkness for a favor Earthless black cat showing signs so true All the blind sight dims the white light Fire blood raven screams Spreading influence through waking dreams The world spins out of tune And there's nothing we can do To save her now Blindly follow twisted tales It seems forever without fail Cat's paws mind their fairy stories dear Leaders lead to cemeteries Living through apothecaries Hear the ringing Swan song drawing near All the blind sight kills the white light Fire blood raven screams Spreading influence through waking dreams The world spins out of tune And there's nothing we can do To save her now Take my place In the human race Lead me from here The weirding of the wicked world Electric eyes Have you seen what lies Lead me from here The weirding of the wicked world
Ya, and around 1.30 it really sounds like inspiration from Crimson's song "Cirkus". The inspiration is really intricate! These guys are masters. Much different from this, but still sharing similar inspirations is a band called "Bubblemath". Check them out. They've only released one album (Such Fine Particles of the Universe) and while every song on it is great, the one that immediately had me sold on the sound was the song "Be Together".
The album cover is totally reminiscent of some of the Yes record sleeves. These guys really take the ball that older prog started rolling and are keeping it goin! (whoever said this is like "In the Wake of Poseidon" nailed it)
God exists without being physically real, much in the same way that inspiration has no physical composition, but is that which is gathered by an individual through perception. A person who is inspired and participates in creative action is an intelligent and conscious creator. During this conscious creation, it is possible to perceive God simply by perceiving your own process.
I'm trying to spread this exact message nowadays. people be thinking God is a dude with opinions not realizing it's an ever-changing shapeless movement of sorts that exists in all and non-creation.
A mí me suenan como una mezcla de Ozzy Osbourne (el vocalista es fan, sin duda) y Pink Floyd. Se siente la influencia de Circus, de KC, pero también de Echoes.
Nah. If we look to the Abrahamic belief, as it extends through Jacob, God gave mankind the means by which they could freely employ their capacity to create. Mankind, however, being tainted by sinful and cursed flesh produced things which glorified sinfulness. I don't know if this is glorifying bad or good or if it has to be either one at the moment, but Astra is a solid outfit and a refreshing band in an industry of homogenization.
this song is a heaven with all the goodness of God and His Angels within the four corners of this trip music:it's beautiful !
This song gave me a lot of beautiful moments . I like this band .
Sounds like Hawkwind fused with Gong and 70's Here & Now! Brilliant Track!
I'm so glad I accidentally found this, the music is phenomenal! And I like his voice, too. Reminds me a little bit of Ozzy.
*Lyrics:*
Careless speeds of light to nowhere
Pass so near no room to grow there
Multiplying moonstruck rabid zoo
No direction weavers waver
Asking darkness for a favor
Earthless black cat showing signs so true
All the blind sight dims the white light
Fire blood raven screams
Spreading influence through waking dreams
The world spins out of tune
And there's nothing we can do
To save her now
Blindly follow twisted tales
It seems forever without fail
Cat's paws mind their fairy stories dear
Leaders lead to cemeteries
Living through apothecaries
Hear the ringing
Swan song drawing near
All the blind sight kills the white light
Fire blood raven screams
Spreading influence through waking dreams
The world spins out of tune
And there's nothing we can do
To save her now
Take my place
In the human race
Lead me from here
The weirding of the wicked world
Electric eyes
Have you seen what lies
Lead me from here
The weirding of the wicked world
for me this album is better than the second...
all such god creatures like this and nobody know them...
we are the god blessed exeptions!
thnks so much for this album, my awesome treasure from 2017
This actually made my jaw drop for a second
Back in the 70'... with clearly a king crimson's touch...

This song is next to Pink Floyd's and King Crimson's songs in my playlist. This must mean something.
If this song was in Obscured by Clouds album, it would fit just perfectly ! \,,|
The mellotron part reminds me of King Crimson 'Circus' it's a trippy tune.
the crow and desolate wastelands on the back of the lp remind me of the dark tower......
Learning the guitar in this song is a new life goal of mine :D
In the 70s we called this, "Head Music"
I love this song!

Que banda do Caral!@# progressivo bem roots. Awesome band!!! A precious found, thanks internet!!!

CDM ...son geniales : generadores de imagenes sonoras eclepticas ¡¡¡
Wow! Apparently prog rock isn't dead! This is awesome!!!
What a bad ass jam!!!
i'm so sad this song is about to end.... i'm at 13'
1:27 ok guys this is inspired by circus but the rest is pink floyd and it's very well made, awesome neoprog band, love em
This reminds me of King Crimson 'Circus' not a huge fan of all their work but I like 'Circus'.

@joealanouf It is a Roger Dean work :D
very well done! finaly a cool new prog band..cove looks rodger dean style
same happened to me!
man I need this album
Sounds like "Cirkus" from the cult album "Lizard" by King Crimson. Astra made a great modern classic.
The KC Cirkus reference cannot be denied!! It is so blatant....
I would be glad to show you where your music is being played but UA-cam won't let me.
Man for a second I thought this was new king crimson with the old band members on something like in the wake of poseidon
fucking awesome tune!!

Cool song.. yeah the first 3 minutes is like King Crimson's Circus in an alternate reality.

WOW!!!!! YES meets Stoner Rock!!!!
I sense a bit of led zeppelin in here
+Bogdan Catana Go listen to Crimson's Circus, and tell me later
Especially since, if you look at the lyrics, this song has absolutely nothing to do with God. Very likely the opposite since.
Lizard?
Sorry but the beauty of this song only reinforces my belief that there is no god.
God is a selfish being, he would not let us have anything this good.
