"An established name in the Scandinavian progressive scene, The Divine
Baze Orchestra has been working on their sound for almost eight years.
Their debut "Once We Were Born" recieved good reviews all over the
continent, and now the quintet announce the release of their anticipated
sophomore album, entitled "Dead but Dreaming". The lead singer and
guitarist Oliver Eek describes the new album as a tribute to H.P
Lovecraft, the late legendary fantasy writer. "The lyrics", Oliver
continues, "are heavily inspired by Lovecraft's work, especially the
"Cthulu"-suite, and deals with themes such as cosmic horror and forces
that stand above the power of humanity." The five members' great musical
talent is apparent, with complex arrangements that never limit
themselves to genre, but at the same time accurately follows the lyrical
twists and turns. "Dead But Dreaming" sounds like no other album in the
genre, and marks a big step in the development of progressive and art
rock music. A must-have for fans of H.P LOVECRAFT, KING CRIMSON and
URIAH HEAP.
