Atlantis I Searching (for) beauty in my dreams, AtlantisOnce upon a time, what I saw, Brought me despair, cause surrounding me, There where, only blue waters... Waves dancing and shining In the cool breeze... Atlantis on the bottom of the ocean, Unexpressed eyes, my eyes... I heard them awakening, They were distant straggled voices, I think I was alive But the vision of them Will follow me forever... Atlantis... I was overwhelmed by a sad And unfortunate feeling, An impression that my soul was conquered by The darkness... Once a slipt, with a ship Into a dark see Whilst a shyttle rain, I reached deep, Under the earth (into a different world)... Oceans In the magic mirror of my soul, I stare at the person that I love, It's the magical carpet on which, I travel on the erebus, In the land of fairy tales So I close my eyes again Feeling so lonely in the rain The mother of sunrise gives hope She can fly me over green fields And... The great oceans away from Days of hatred and despair... I saw immortal roses And a gold field with giant trees That shined immensely... I saw ancient walls and palaces everywhere... Amidst ancient gardens and magical trees... So I close my eyes again... In Heaven's Island In heaven's island, Under the gold flowers of the sun Into a drop of water, I feel my earthly lover... Let me be in the romantic Middle age, At the furthest beach in the universe In heaven's island...... On the clouds in the sky, Take my drama far away, Whilst my kindness and my feelings Beat the darkness In heaven's island, Under the gold flowers of the sun Atlantis II I wondered if I could inhabit there forever ,In the harmony that opium provides, In the field amidst the virgin colours And admirable things Atlantis on the bottom of the ocean, Unexpressed eyes, my eyes... Every night in my dreams, I searched the key for the ancient wall, In the dreamy search for the great atlantis I understood that all the visions and... Grace had finished Myths forgotten through the centuries Wisdom and miracles born in a strange land Searching for the great Atlantis If I Could Fly As I learn to fly, Like the white bird of the sea I feel the immortal magic of the Etherial With sun glowing, Sun Glowing like gold Shine - like the sun Fly - to the stars Life is the unknown in the feast Of this gears beauty In the non dimension rainbow If I could flyShine... Frequently I see things in the air, Sad visions, Invisible for the masses to see... And the sense of a flower Brings them into deep thoughts If I could fly Shine... Aura I follow a passion so dreamy So optimistic, Like waking up from a deep sleep... I feel the aura It transforms the numb feelings Into thoughts...so dreamy thoughts Flying in the clouds I feel the aura A sweet angel of hope in an unlimited Period of lust and Harmony It transforms the numb feelings Into thoughts Flying in the clouds... I liked to escape into the embracement of sleep, There I found the beauty in the dreams Amidst ancient gardens and magical forests Under strange stars in a sleep journey Flying in the clouds... The Blue Dream Shadows of beauty here in the sin of love I close my eyes and breath Passion for life One voice, one body learns to love A simple thought for life is enough, The mood becomes a temptation, The temptation a longing And the longing evolves in an unbeatable need This need is the blue dream Towards a great sadness We are not always here We burn in zeal and give wings To our soul for the blue dream It means the start of our happiness whilst It sweetly rises to our soul Shadows of beauty...

Stefanos: Vocals & bass Christanos: All guitars Roula: Keys & vocals Fotis: Drums Session musicians: Thanasis Hatziagapis: Solo guitars Georgia Grammaticos: Vocals "Written through the hot greek nights of summer 96'. This is the reason that all lyrics speak about seas, oceans and of course lost islands like the dreamy Atlantis. I hope that they can touch your soul as mine..." Stefanos Kintzoglou Recorded at Passion Studios (Greece) in December 96 - April 97 Mized by George Gregos and On Thorns I Lay in May 97 Enigneered by George Gregos Produced by On Thorns I Lay Mastered by Digipro (France) Lay-Out by Holy Records Executive production by Holy Records Orama is probably best described as dreamy greek doom metal. Everything about this album breathes an atmosphere of water, islands and oceans. Not just the melodic riffs, the sound of water but mostly the harps that are used often. This together with the great male and female singing and the combined slow and fast parts creates a beautiful atmospheric doom metal album. Rating: 7.5 out of 10
