Album Description
Available in:
"Book of the Dead" is the debut studio album by K2, released in 2004 by ProgRock Records. An old-school prog-rock concept album based on ideas and stories taken directly from the Egyptian “Book of the Dead” - would be a creepy album even if vocalist Shaun Guerin had not passed away in 2003 shortly after recording his performances for this record.
The album is divided into five chapters, and purists will revel in the 23-and-a-half-minute opening chapter, “Infinite Voyage,” which boasts plenty of Moog. Those sounds get even fatter on the memorable third chapter, “The Edge of Light.” Meanwhile, the sparse instrumental fourth chapter, “Aten (Window of Appearances)," segues into the redemptive final chapter, “The Cloak of Ambiguity,” which brings Book of the Dead bouncing to a hopeful (and, considering Guerin's death, prophetic) conclusion: “As the clouds depart, I reach the deepest valley/And cross through the gates, reflected in my eyes.”
