The album RSVP by Alethians is a masterpiece of modern progressive rock. With its intricate guitar work, soaring vocals, and complex rhythms, it is a true tour de force of musical excellence.
From the opening track, "The Invitation," the listener is drawn into a world of complex melodies and powerful emotions. Each song builds on the last, creating a cohesive and compelling narrative that explores themes of love, loss, and redemption.
One standout track is "R.S.V.P.," a haunting ballad that showcases the band's ability to create a sense of intimacy and vulnerability. The vocals are soulful and emotive, while the instrumentation is understated yet impactful.
Another highlight is "The Aftermath," a high-energy rocker that features blistering guitar solos and thunderous drums. It is a true showcase for the band's technical prowess and their ability to create a sense of urgency and intensity.
There were Three wooden Crosses on a Hillside
and Three different people were to die
There were Two who deserved their execution
But the third took the place of you and I
In the midst there hung Christ the son of David
The one sacrifice for all mankind
On Each side hung a Murderer and a robber
Men who were paying for their crimes
Oh the one he was bitter in his scorning
If you’re God bring us all down from the cross
But his tears were his Sentence , No one saved him
So he died and for ever more was lost
But the second turned and somehow in his dying
He cried Master please remember me
Oh today shalt thou be with me in glory
And from sin shall eternally be free
So the state of mankind is now before us
It’s two halves divided there by God
There are some who accept and love our Saviour
There are some who despise the ground he trod
There’s a free choice to take him or reject him
Like the thief it is all you have to do
Oh my friends no one else can give the answer
On which side of Calvary’s cross are you
