lyrics
Look at me; your eyes are drifting to the floor…
Show me the worst things in your heart, but beat
a bit more.
So, have we reached a point of bliss?
Or of sin?
Drops of redemption pierce my skin.
Wings be your guide, but they’re made not of feathers but pills
Icarus flies, for this modern day Lazaran thrill.
Is that what you need?
Is that what you need?
Look at me once more,
Never end this dawn; it’s
Coming as a watercolour
Painting our descent.
Look at me, your soul
In this midnight smoulders,
Lustrous as an ember
In the midst of a squall.
In petrichor…
In petrichor…
These cheeks beneath the waterfall,
I’m left infused with petrichor.
If that’s what you need,
Then cut to stem the bleed.
Suture all this rust…
Preserve these signs of us.
As you cast yourself in this sunrise
And seal away your amber fate,
A fragment of a roman wind
Might blow a different way
And love might win, if you let it in.
Look at me once more,
Never end this dawn; it’s
Coming as a watercolour
Painting our descent.
Look at me, your soul
In this midnight smoulders,
Lustrous as an ember
In the midst of a squall.
In petrichor…
In petrichor…
These cheeks beneath the waterfall,
I’m left infused with petrichor.

Fantasy progressive rock is not something I'd ever thought of. Yet Foreign Land, especially the Foreign Land track itself, transported me straight into an unknown, magical fantasy world. Hakim Zulkufli

Ah, why didn't I buy this earlier? Has been on my wishlist since it's release and Bad Elephant Music's sampler and ongoing sales campaign luckily triggered the buy.
Tags given are post-progressive and post-rock, but the music feels much lighter than I usually associate with those tags. Quite song-oriented, indeed. Great music, great vocals. Carsten Pieper
The Australian instrumental band juxtapose classical pianos and ambient swells with uncompromising, proggy post-metal. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 9, 2023

Thanks to the nice-endof-year-offer I came to fill this gap in my private worm collection (a, pardon me, worm hole, so to speak :-))
Wonderful reminiscence to many good things past (Canterbury, 70s prog, folk rock) with a good sense of humour and great ideas (both in the songwriting & in the arrangements) . Carsten Pieper
