„Memories Of A Dead Man“ is a story about a man, his past, the one who saved his life and an endless tragedy.
Sitting in jail, waiting for the death penality, the protagonist has only one place where he can seek for the truth: His Mind!
Who killed the light in his life? The allegations and judges are pointing the finger at him. Is this really the truth? Or has someone bent reality? Someone from his long gone past, but still so close?
You decide!
AeoS started to write „Memories Of A Dead Man“ back in 2008. It was the first song written by them and was released as „Memories Of A Dead Man - Part III“ on their first demo record in 2010.
Finally, after 8 years the band brought the story to an end and finished the three piece conceptional album. Influenced by movies like Memento, tragedys like Hamlet and progressive music from the last 3 decades as well as modern metal, AeoS brings this story to life and into your imagination.
lyrics
4. Believe
I know what they mean, with the fall into validity.
But I'm afraid, what If I never come close to him
To see, to believe, he is real and
All the allegations will disappear
Or will domineer
I'm walking around
Remember the time I don't realize
With this bloody knife
Beside me when I’m waking up tonight
Stay away
From the haunt, a deadly sequenze
Playing in my head
I'm so afraid for the day I’m losing myself
I'm breaking the mirror
Counting the days with every sound
I am sitting
In my jail and thinking about
That you’re lying down and your blood is on the ground
Save me from the painful nightmare
I'm walking around
Remember the time I don't realize
With this bloody knife
Beside me when I’m waking up tonight
Stay away
From the haunt, a deadly sequenze
Playing in my head
I'm so afraid for the day I am losing myself
5. Search Yourself
When will this quest
Of questioning end?
When will you believe
It was like a dream?
Now
The facts don't lie
It is time
To say the truth
Remember
You are under an oath
Why did you kill her
Why did you destroy your life
When will this quest
Of questioning end
When will I understand
It is time to flee
Searching myself to find someone else

WOW! One of these rousing progck-fusions of the young millenium created by unknown(?) uncanny skilled musicians. Here: Foremost Andy Didorenko, well trained violinist, also fine on (bass?-)guits & keys. OK, some "well-informed" speculations about musical genes: Mainly a less jazzy Mr Sirius' ’Dirge’ (esp. 'cause flute, ac.-guit & str.-sections), KC & D. Way's Wolf ’73/’74 and a little J. Tull ’77. OK, no voice to compete with Ian A., J. Wetton or Lisa Ohki. But a very fine & refreshing album! ROWIAL
i like the Rick Beato videos and he had shown the track electric sunrise in his video "How To Count Odd Meters". I was very impressed from this song and searched for the whole album and found it at bandcamp ;-) hpaydt
Experimental Heavy Prog Rock. There are a few parts of utter brilliance, especially 'Trivial Thing' with it's fade-out-fade-in sequence. Production quality is outstanding albeit the overly compressed master. HaMMiE
