final stage: arcane inferno of devastated dreams

so now the story has reached an interesting point: can the power of the avenger inflicted on the human soul solve all problems? for what we already know the avengers power is mainly a destructive one. in the end the quest of our hero is such that needs no use of force, if you would agree with me on that point. the entrance to the vale could be indeed opened by force, but we will see to that later (referring to the songs around "volcanic blood" and "thus the empire rises"...).

this is the last stage of the journey - I think it's best to give no details about this part of the story for everything can be found within the lyrics leaving no gaps to fill. in these last songs "Winterblast" and "Arcane Inferno" the album titel gets its qualification at last: the meaning of "loss" will be the main topic now.

“Winterblast” as the first full length song after the interlude “Freezing Hearts in Silent Storms” is not the fastest of the album, but surely the one which seems to be. a really cold and dark atmosphere prepares the way to downfall. “Arcane Inferno” afterwards represents the rush of conflicting emotions resulting from the events before. eventually this will lead to another attempt in bringing this damn life to an end. that long story just to die in the end? well the main character of this whole thing can’t be that poor-spiritied, can he? in fact the solution to this is the end of “Arcane Inferno” and also the end of the album...

ok now what tells us the story? besides some great deal of personal motivation there is this idea of what the worth of life itsself can be. as long as life is all nice and funny this thought doesn't even spring to mind, but at the edge of sanity after all important things in life have vanished there is plenty of time to think about what keeps one from dying yet. so after defining the reason to keep on living, what happens if this reason also disappears? that's the point where we get befor the final song of the album. what happens then is a tricky thing - the option of just living implies indifference towards what happens to yourself and everything around, because otherwise there would be only death as an temptation. so as cowardice is not the right way as I would say, there has to be the thought of what to do when you have no reason to live but at the same time chose not to commit suicide. I won't give further information about what the intention behind this story is for with the plot already told you can all use your wits and guess what all the details not mentioned here and in the posts before are all about. the whole concept is far beyond just telling a story - indeed a wierd one but still something that can happen to anyone of us. I won't steal the act of thinking from all of you before anyone had even a chance to listen to the album, I just would rather provide a short summary of the plot than have everyone interprete the lyrics in a completely wrong way...

...according to latest information I think we would have to postpone the release of the album to late october or november 2009, but organizing the next shows earlyier than expected. Winterblast could be on stage again in summer if nothing of cosmic importance crosses our plans...
