    This Album was inspired by Captain Sir John Franklin's Lost Expedition, a British Voyage of Arctic Exploration that departed with 129 Men from England in 1845.
    Both Ships, called Erebus & Terror, became icebound and after being trapped and suffering in ethernal coldness for over a year, the remaining Sailormen decided to abandon their Ships. Trying to survive, they set out for the Canadian Mainland but disappeared.
    Their frozen bodies might still be out there.

about

With Northlight, I composed the grand finale at the end of the album.
The song is about the dying seamen whose souls go to heaven to the northern lights.
Actually a song about friendship and the good old times, where you never know when they might be over.
Musically again a power song with a fantastic guitar solo by Fabio. Northlight will surely be a brute wall live.
The end of the song is actually written as an outro of an orchestra and closes the album.
Everyone is dead, the curtain goes down.

lyrics

Daidalos - Northlight

from The Expedition, released July 29, 2022
To my Friends so far away
Wrote a Poem in the Snow
When I think of our first Days
Oh what a Time
We went northward to the Passage
Singing drunken in the Rain
Noone knew what should be coming
Oh what a Time

But now I´ve lost all my Friends and all the Hope we had
I´m still alive but my Heart keeps missing
To all my Love dear Widow
So this is my last Goodbye
Here down in the Snow I will die

I hear your Voices in the Wind
Like Words I cry
Your Souls unbound
Rise up to the Northlight

Open Mouths
Open Eyes
Starring at the Sun
Fragile Skin
Frozen Flesh
Statues in the Wind
Silent Screams
Desperate Plea
Lost in endless Cold
Fathers Dead
Sons wasted
Memories Untold
Suffering
Don´t forget my Words
Don´t forget my Voice
Don´t forget my Tale
Don´t forget my Mates

The original idea was to write Blackmetal songs just by piano&drums.
But after an experiment of creating atmospheric breakdowns between the heroic but hopeless mental state of Sir John Franklin´s Arctic Expedition, a concept for "The Expedition" was born.
Still in the lead of the piano, eight symphonic Dark Metal songs arised. ... more
