about

Stage 2 – The Captive

● As the track starts, Henry hears the orderly instruct him to return to his room as marching drums cadence him to get moving now! Now convinced that he is being wrongly imprisoned and believes his wife is being kept from him, Henry begins to oscillate between anger and despair made all the worse by the fact that he still doesn’t understand what’s happening to him. Decidedly aggressive death metal spearheads the track before Henry’s anger falls into a defeated frustration represented by the pensive midsection.

lyrics

STAGE 2: THE CAPTIVE

What have you done with my wife?
(Get your hands off me!)
Mary can you hear my voice?
(I don’t belong here)

Open this door
Release me from this cage
You have the wrong man
I’m not a criminal
Tell me what have you done with her?

Terrifying to believe
I’ve been locked away
Must be some kind of mistake
Who would leave me here alone?

I can’t see the sunrise through these walls
Who do they think I am?
What do they think I’ve done?

They try to tell me that this is my home
Malefactor they must think me to be
Get out! Let me go!
How can I convince them that I’m not the one
Deserving to be here alone
Get out! Let me go!

It All Began With Loneliness
by The Anchoret

supported by 8 fans who also own “Stage 2 – The Captive”

One of my favorite Progressive albums of the year by far. It has the appropiate mix of mistery, complexity and surprise I expect of this kind of albums. With some gospel, saxo and flute passages giving a theatrical touch. Fantastic. josich

An outstanding Extreme doom death album, in the best tradition. The funerary atmosphere reminds of Evoken ('Centuries of ooze" bears striking similarities, for my delight). It is overall sharp, dark, hypnotic and unrelenting. One of those rare convincing new bands that hold proud the legacy of the biggest names. Bertrand Marchal
