Release Notes:
--------------
Three long years have gone by since the last album "Ignis Mutat Res" was
released. Three years in which new ideas and cultural experiences have
found their way into the music and lyrics of Lux Interna, and effected the
musical professionalism of the band. "God is not Dead for the Birds" is a
classic singer-song writer album, however the musical spectrum has been
considerably widened to the benefit of the songs.
Joshua GentzkeÆs expressive and sonorous voice, which by its very nature
carries an immanent melancholy and intensity that is hard to outdo,
sweeps over the songs. His vocals û complimented by the voice of Kathryn
û reach a further level of intensity, so that songs like
"Aporia Waltz/Russian Thistle" or the subtly country-western influenced
"Her Lily White Hands" display moments of artistry, creative force, and
emotional expressiveness that are simply splendid.
"God is not Dead for the Birds" is held together by three short
instrumental pieces, partitioning Lacuna, that provide musical spaces
which Lux Interna fills with their own musical colors and arrangements.
All the songs radiate warmth, security, and yet at the same time, display
a peculiarly melancholic confidence, which is accented first and
foremost by the virtuously played cello and violin. At times û although
it is liminal û man may sense a subtly angry undertone, which has
something of the youthful and rebellious energy of NICK CAVE. This
unique mix of characteristics characterizes the development of Lux Interna
best, as well as offering an argument for the authenticity that Joshua
and Kathryn bring to their work.
"God is not Dead for the Birds" is a great album, full of emotion, which
must be recommended to every declared lover of genuine and sincere folk
music
