It has been a very long time since I have seen a band replace their lead vocalist so well. Tommy Karevik picks up where Khan left off with ease. Excellent move Kamelot and another amazing video,song and album.

“Sacrimony (Angel Of Afterlife)”

A passing life each day, a carving on the wall
It’s like a night without awakening
The truth is lost and maybe never to be found
Like the shadows of my pantomime

When all the world is gathered for the final feast
Will there be someone to believe in me?
Voices echoing in my distorted mind
Is this for real or just a dream?
(Am I losing my mind? I am not afraid, my dear)

[Chorus:]
Sing for me angel of afterlife calming me down
Chaos inside my nebula
And make the wrong turn to right in a celestial light
Forgive my sacrimony

Tell me what they say that I’m supposed to know
Tell me every little detail
Make truth appear for me as distant memories
Like pictures on a silver screen

It all becomes clear
The truth will appear
Forever a debt for you and me

[Chorus]

And now leave me alone
Erase my memory
Don’t want to hear, don’t want to see
Don’t want to think about the lie that follows me

All becomes clear
But no one will hear my testimony

I am your angel of afterlife calming you down
Silence inside your nebula
And when the wrong turns to right in a celestial light
I’ll heed your testimony

[Chorus]

(Ring around a rosie,
A pocketful of posies,
Ashes, ashes
We all fall down)

I couldn’t find a decent copy of a video of the band performing this song so the link is just to the audio. This song goes out to all those people who…well…I think we all know some people this should be dedicated to. You may be one of them. 😉 Lyrics below. Enjoy.

“Gotta Kill Capt. Stupid”

Ah damn, we got a lot of stupid people
Doing a lot of stupid things
Thinking a lot of stupid thoughts
And if you want to see one
Just look in the mirror

Gotta kill Captain Stupid, can’t you see him
Today we start the new way, we’re Suicidal
Gotta kill the old way, we’ll make it better
Won’t you join our mission, don’t be stupid

Got to kill Captain Stupid
Got to kill Captain Stupid

Brothers killing brothers, what up with that?
Can’t you see they’re laughing, that ain’t funny
Babies making babies, that ain’t love
You just got screwed over, get some respect

Got to kill Captain Stupid
Got to kill Captain Stupid
Got to kill Captain Stupid
Got to kill Captain Stupid

Kill him, kill him, kill him
Gotta kill Captain Stupid
Kill him, kill him, kill him
Gotta kill Captain Stupid
Kill him, kill him, kill him
Gotta kill Captain Stupid
Kill him, kill him, kill him

And I don’t understand why
People be bringin’ Captain Stupid in their lives
Treating him like a superhero
Glorifying him when he ain’t nothing but a superpunk
And you see, you’re the one who’s gonna have to stop him
‘Cause you’re the one that started him

Oh, what’s that?
So now you say life sucks
Well, ninety-nine percent of it’s
What you make of it…
So if your life sucks, you suck

What’s that crap you’re smoking, playing the fool
Waste your life for nothing, when you’re something
What the hell you thinking, mind pollution
Got to get back control, it’s your life fool

Got to kill Captain Stupid
Got to kill Captain Stupid
Got to kill Captain Stupid
Got to kill Captain Stupid

Kill him, kill him, kill him
Gotta kill Captain Stupid
I gotta, you gotta, I gotta
Gotta kill Captain Stupid
Kill him, kill him, kill him
Gotta kill Captain Stupid
I gotta, you gotta, I gotta
Gotta kill Captain Stupid

What’s that now?
Ah, so you’re scared to do something about it
Well, you better be scared not to do something about it
Because if you don’t kill Captain Stupid
Captain Stupid gonna kill you
Got to kill Captain Stupid…fool

At the Edge of NGC 2174

This fantastic skyscape lies near the edge of NGC 2174 a star forming region about 6,400 light-years away in the nebula-rich constellation of Orion. It follows mountainous clouds of gas and dust carved by winds and radiation from the region’s newborn stars, now found scattered in open star clusters embedded around the center of NGC 2174, off the top of the frame. Though star formation continues within these dusty cosmic clouds they will likely be dispersed by the energetic newborn stars within a few million years. Recorded at infrared wavelengths by the Hubble Space Telescope, the interstellar scene spans about 6 light-years. The image celebrates the upcoming 24th anniversary of Hubble’s launch onboard the space shuttle orbiter Discovery on April 24, 1990.
