A virulent, hard, progressive-edged rock odyssey through the myth cycles of Apollo and Dionysus. Shattered gods, fallen heroes, and music that rocks with the tension between reason and passion. This hard, beautiful, and uncompromising album contains rock paeans to the sun god who watched his lover buried alive because he couldn't bear loving a woman more beautiful than himself, to Dionysus the eternally unrecognized dark in the spaces of Carnival, to Hypatia the last Pagan philosopher who was violently destroyed for her great learning, and to many other figures out of Greek myth and legend. An extended Homeric rock meditation on the loss of heroes and the meaning of the ancient myths to an age of disbelief. Contains 10 songs. Total length: 56:16.

Song titles:
The Sorrows Of Young Apollo / Hypatia / Dionysus / Pygmalion / Apollo in Picardy / Leucothoe / Miranda / Cassandra / Cyparissus / Asphodel
