The family is housed in a refugee camp where diverse people of different backgrounds live. The days are passing by, the refugees get to know each other. Many observations take place. The scars are the common denominators. They hold onto, strengthen and comfort each other. They share their stories, speak of how they buried friends, had to endure the death of close friends and family members, talk about the illnesses they or others got on the road.
Making a new life is harder than expected with (or considering) what has been experienced; all the things left behind, struggles, and lost ones. After completing their refuge action by arriving at a secure place, they realize that the burden of the past is lifelong and will always have to be carried. For instance, moms hear voices of their gone kids in their ears, memories are refreshed. Fathers and brothers wake up from their sleep suddenly, have difficulties falling asleep. KATRE integrates sound effects and voice recordings into the song to picture this condition. Their life is more secure compared to before however psychological breakdown causes time to flow backward. Old identities clash with new life and get entangled.

Never heard of this band until this week. Which is kind of crazy considering what I found when I first listened to Totem Youth. This band takes you on an emotional ride. Not unlike bands like Mono can do. dcdirkzwager

For some reason, what I previewed and the real songs was somewhat different - maybe because of the cover art?
But I definitely don't regret something more spacial than expected. The recent Ocean drifting in space. frankwurst
