A journey, stylized into the perfect concept to question reality and to bring the supposed truth of things into the light - A meandering river, the moon, peaks and valleys form the scenery of the first two albums by the progressive/post metal band "Hills Like White Lions". Between melancholy and euphoria, every emotion is welcome, like tides that come and go. This is exactly how tension and relaxation become the impetus of their music. Truth, love and selfishness are the dominant themes of the brand new concept album "Meander". The maelstrom awaits you.

lyrics
Meander, Pt. IV: Black Tide
I am the big blue tide
I left you there
On the brink of the night
Oh, I saw the vultures cry
with both eyes shut
Every day, every night
I see the big red tide
I am left there
On the brink of the night
Oh, I feel the fading light
but danger comes
Every day, every time
A fall between two times
and now I wonder
Struggling mourning chimes
and now I wonder
A fall between two times
and now I wonder
Struggling mourning chimes
and now I wonder
A fall between two times
and now I wonder
Struggling mourning chimes
and now I wonder
Brush strokes in the sky
Lighting some sight
Dripping from the hives
Blending black tide
Weaving together euphoria and melancholy, Hills Like White Lions offer a colorful bouquet of emotional and diverse music.

One of my favorite Progressive albums of the year by far. It has the appropiate mix of mistery, complexity and surprise I expect of this kind of albums. With some gospel, saxo and flute passages giving a theatrical touch. Fantastic. josich

I have yet to listen to this entire album without skipping a single track. Like an enchanter, the album keeps your attention with its effortless flow throughout, despite having crushing riffs, progressive breakdowns, and epic-length songs. gebs
