Neglected Garden
music: Martin Schnella
lyrics: Kiri Geile, Martin Schnella, Michael Lowin
vocal melodies: Kiri Geile, Martin Schnella, Michael Lowin
Death: Now I reach out for the garden you’ve once loved
Feel my bitter breath, I’ll execute my craft
I take fading things, Oh that is my desire
Without conscience, without grace,
Won’t earn a penny to my name
Elinoire: Mist ascended from the valley down below
Oh, I can feel your pain
Death: I will lodge my claim, until the sun will rise
Beware ‘cause it’s my turn
And I will gear up for the show
Lea/Spirit: Time and tide wait for no man, do you see?
When the last grain of sand
Time: In the hourglass decays
Elinore: If you don’t change, my hope will die
Destiny: Safe your soul just remember
Rage/Spirit: Activate your mind
Destiny: Like the last grain of hope in a desperate game of life
Leave behind this inane life
Rage/Spirit: Back to life again
Destiny: But he remains and fills up his glass of wine

What can I say about Big Big Train that I haven’t said before?
This album took a little while to grow on me but by the time I saw it live I was in love with its humongous, over-egged pomposity! They do it all with such passion, excitement and amazing musicianship.
Essential. Crinklechips
Streamlining their post-metal sprawl through a sharper melodic focus, the Scottish juggernauts' third LP is labyrinthine yet approachable. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 25, 2024

Always excited to learn and hear what Alex Lifeson does next and this is a fabulous pivot. And Maiah Wynne is a poetic vocal talent, infusing her performance with complex emotion. More please! Perchance Music & Digital Media (SM)
