Empyrium The Turn Of The Tides

2014, Twelve years after their last studio effort WEILAND, Empyrium - the masters of natural ambiances set to music - return with a much-anticipated new album. Notwithstanding their creative break, THE TURN OF THE TIDES is an Empyrium-album par excellence, although it bears strong testimony to the artistic and personal growth Schwadorf and Helm have undergone since 2002. Concurrently with the music, the conceptional aspect of THE TURN OF THE TIDES attests to a mature and evolved elaboration on Empyrium's essence. Nature and human emotion as reflected in it still remain subject matter of the songs, but here, too, Helm and Schwadorf choose a more abstract approach. THE TURN OF THE TIDES addresses cycles, both within nature - the tides of the sea, the change of seasons, the eternal circulation of water - as well as human life, and insinuates how everything rediscovers itself in everything.
