The psychotropic band from Crete went up the high mountains and they gave us a breathtaking view of the land. Filled with solid riffs, thunderous drums and awe-inspiring atmosphere they brought the rain that clears the muddied landscape of modern rock. If ever Tool met with traditional Cretan musicians and had a feast, this would be their soundtrack.

Lyrics (scroll lower for english):
Να ´μουν αέρας δροσερός
να ´μουν στη γης κλωνάρι
μια μαύρη πέτρα του γιαλού
νύχτα χωρίς φεγγάρι

Να ´χα φτερά να πέταγα
να ´ρθω να σ´ ανταμώσω
ορφανεμένο μου πουλί
που μου ´χεις λείψει τόσο

Μοιάζω με βάρκα έρημη
σε κύματα αφρισμένα
που ´χει σπασμένα τα κουπιά
και τα πανιά σκισμένα

Να ´χα φτερά να πέταγα
να ´ρθω να σ´ ανταμώσω
ορφανεμένο μου πουλί
που μου ´χεις λείψει τόσο

Σε σταυροδρόμι σκοτεινό
με την ψυχή στο στόμα
τα μάτια σου μου φέγγουνε
να περπατώ στο χώμα

Να ´χα φτερά να πέταγα
να ´ρθω να σ´ ανταμώσω
ορφανεμένο μου πουλί
που μου ´χεις λείψει τόσο

 

rough translation:
I wish I was a cool breeze
a branch on the ground
a black stone of the shore
a moonless night

I wish I had wings
to fly and come to meet you
oh my oprhaned bird
I've missed you so much

I am like a lonely boat
on wild and strong waves
with broken paddles
and torn sails

I wish I had wings
to fly and come to meet you
oh my oprhaned bird
I've missed you so much

in dark crossroads
trying to catch my breath
your eyes light my way
so that I walk on these grounds
