lyrics
I’ve lived a life of a thousand lifetimes
Searched through land and sea and air
Climbed the peaks of the Himalayas
Scoured the abyss of the Dal lake
I’ve sailed across the seven seas
From Black to Red, from blue to green
Crossed through all three worlds:
Heaven, earth, and far-off shores
But how long can I hold onto
The love that I know is you?
I’ve flown across the whole blue sky
On the backs of winds up high
Heard celestial sounds of Brahma
Played from hearts of the Ghandarvas
But how long can I hold onto
The love that I know is you?
And wait for the moment
If only I was patient…
Searched through land and sea and air
Climbed the peaks of the Himalayas
Scoured the abyss of the Dal lake
I’ve sailed across the seven seas
From Black to Red, from blue to green
Crossed through all three worlds:
Heaven, earth, and far-off shores
But how long can I hold onto
The love that I know is you?
I’ve flown across the whole blue sky
On the backs of winds up high
Heard celestial sounds of Brahma
Played from hearts of the Ghandarvas
But how long can I hold onto
The love that I know is you?
And wait for the moment
If only I was patient…

Masana Temples
by Kikagaku Moyo/幾何学模様supported by 13 fans who also own “The Seven Seas”
Oh how I long for this album in vinyl format! Such smoothness. Such warmth. Such execution. This music begs to be taken along and woven into memories. Everyone I’ve shared this album with has loved it. The music speaks far and wide. Shouting out to a fellow follower, Brian Lehmann, for his excellent taste in music. If not for him, I likely would have never stumbled upon this absolute gem!

Been a huge fan of bands like the Warlocks, BJT, dolly rocker movement…etc… really glad to have found these guys. Been playing this album non stop for days now and can’t think of any better way to be spending my time.

Chantry / The Villain
by Mt. Mountainsupported by 11 fans who also own “The Seven Seas”
This record somehow manages to slow down time! I enjoy the overall sound of the instruments and especially the voice. Either listen to this in a dark room and relax or crank up the volume and feel the fuzz! (Will probably sound even better on vinyl)
