"Everyone dies....This is a fact of life...
One we all have to learn sometime during our stay on this
world.
Part of the fatal attraction of shuffling along this mortal coil
is the inevitability of meeting the Grim Reaper at journey's end...
Plants, animals, people, all living creatures at some point fall
down and return to the earth they were made of.
Yet as long as we recollect the ones that have gone before, even
as we continue to respect their words and the art they left behind,
the echo of whom they once were lives on.
You see, even though the artist may die,
the art remains forever Alive!"
Steve Sic Evans van der Harten, midsummer 2007
This newest OMNIA-Paganscum release "Alive!" is without
doubt the very best CD OMNIA has made to date. Its disc and pages
filled with exquisite timeless poetry born from the minds of renowned
poets such as Edgar Allan Poe, William Shakespeare, Lewis Carrol
and Steve Sic..
Joining OMNIA on these recordings are master musician Michael
Popp of the famous German bands "Estampie" and "Qntal",
Oliver "S.Tyr" Pade of "Faun" and Michiel
"tapanar" Bakkes of the Bulgarian group "Izvor".
And as a finishing touch the whole 36 page book has been lovingly
illustrated by one of the greatest living artists of our time:
Alan Lee ("Lord of the Rings", "Faeries"etc)...
"Alive!" was released on August 3rd 2007
(release party at the Dutch fantasy festival "Castlefest")
