Chaos is calmed by the soft kiss of fate
Greatness is calling, the sweet serenade
Thunder and lightning shoot up to the skies
Firebrand's rise - laws of nature defied
Breaching barriers, breaking shackles
Shooting towards our ultimate purpose
Realizing - finally we are free
Uproot the wreckage of civilized times
The human condition's steadfast decline
Here today and gone tomorrow
Cataclysmic consequences
Hear our primal cry - Will we survive?
Panic is calmed by the call of our dreams
Drawn towards the light of a bright fantasy
Carrying the torch of mankind,
pioneers, elite's ascension
Sacrifices made to reach new home
We free the truths of yesterday's reign
and solemnly welcome the fever's embrace

The Fever

Start a life - then start a better life
Constantly
Come to dawn - come to light
Start to dream - light up your life
Constantly
Inside the dream - it shines so bright
Come to the dawn -
Dreaming life - inside it's light
It shines so bright
Save a life - then save a better life
Constantly
Come for me - and set us free
What could we save but ourselves?
A choice for the privileged
A life abandoned
And handed down to the little man
A lifetime unsaved
The smallest ones are fading
No longer even a part of us
Nevermore to be mentioned
Don't look back, stay strong,
embrace the dream
What's left behind is silence
Not everything you lose is loss
Towards the dawn
On and on - to the dawn - on and on
To the dawn
And Beyond
What could we save but ourselves?
A choice for the privileged
All life abandoned
And handed down to the lesser men
What could we save?
Save! Save!
What could we save in the end?
A life betrayal /All life betrayal

False Dawn
24:42
|

|
A peace is shrouding the landscape
A silence in the air
is storming in the mind
Outcast - the choice of the privileged
What would they save but themselves?
Abandoning the end
The end for lesser men
for the last men on Earth
A life for lesser men
to meet their certain end
Embracing the unheard
as the last men on Earth
We have eternity within our grasp
We do what we have to do
for a higher purpose
Reaching for the divine
Saviours of humankind
Sacrifice
For all our lives
Two fractions, one unity
Carrying the load of all
future and past
Sacrifice
Sacrifice
For our lives
Sacrifice
Triumphantly we forge our dreams into history
Progressive grand designs
soon to be realized
Triumphant, we put their stamp on eternity
And save humanity
Reaching towards the divine
Triumphant, we reach the fringes of destiny
Become divinity
Life will shine in this light
Left for dead in desolate ruins
Sacrificed for a feverish dream
But a wind is softly whispering a song
With the promise of
New life
New day is dawning
The circular bonding
Our roots have deepened
in the scorched soil
New day is dawning
sense of belonging
To Life abandoned
Their failed life
We lived the disparate truths
of our fantasies
to dream our destiny
No light out here but the cold stars
We stare at our false dawn
and all we see is death

Gamle Mester

I am increasingly surprised by Lars Fredrik Frøislie, all his performances are extraordinary, Frøislie is probably the best classic prog keyboardist at the moment and this album is extraordinary.

Brilliant retro/symphonic/folky prog from Norway. Pastoralia was great, but I think I like this even better! This album sounds as if they made it for me, simply love it! If you're imagining Mirage-era Camel with Norwegian woods, er, words, you'll might guess what to expect. At least, that's how I would describe it. Or just check the liner notes here. They nail it, too...

Fire Fortellinger
by Lars Fredrik Frøislie
supported by 35 fans who also own “Firebrand”
Dette er et fantastisk verk hvor det synges på norsk! Det siste setter en spiss på det hele. Lydbildet er åpent og dynamisk og man føler seg hensatt til 1970-tallets progressive rock. Dette ble oppdaget helt tilfeldig da jeg skulle sette igang dagens dont på hjemmekontoret og hadde litt arbeidsvegring og sveipa innom Bandcamp. Så ble hjemmekontoret utsatt litt til da jeg så klart måtte høre hele greia..😉. Takk for en flott musikalsk opplevelse en vinterdag i januar 2024.

Dwellers of the Deep
by Wobbler
supported by 33 fans who also own “Firebrand”
This might be the least folky of the Wobbler releases and I wasn't sure about it at all. After a few listens however I'm loving the inventiveness and the endless melodies, all driven along by Kristian Hultgren's wonderful percussive bass.
