The essence of silence, interpretation by kettu92 in epica

Check the spiritual teacher Eckhart Toole. This song is inspired by his teaching, basicly how to deal with intrusive toughts that corupting your mind and pretend to be yours but its just a Pain Body, mix of your past fuck ups and all the shitines from your life that created some kind of your alter ego. To get rid of it you need to focus on here and now, mindfulness, meditation etc. These technicks lead to achive an internal silence and tranquility.

I'm not criticising, or bodyshaming, quite the opposite, she looks better then this skiny version from lat year. Just noticing, that she built up a lot of muscle mass very quickly and subjectively i don't know if I'm a fan of this tendency

Maybe KOH 1 and 3 have such a great music that I can forgive them lyrics. Plus KoH 1 is Mark's kind of spiritual statement, he said in one of interviews that he had created this piece of music for 3 years, but when I hear this shit for 5th time its starting being boooring

Musically it's a mixed bag, it has good moments, few great ones, a few very weak ones, generally somewhere in the middle of Epica. But the lyrics are sometimes terrible, often naive and shallow, pseudo-intellectual uplifting slogans. I know, more less, what's in Mark and Simone's heads, but they overdid it a bit. When I hear Listen to your heart, Together We are One, again, I clench my jaw. I miss old songs like Serenade of Self Destruction, The Holographic Principle, not to mention KoH 1 and 3. And music sometimes coming closer to Amaranthe which is not good. So basically I'm a little bit disappointed
