The lyrics of “Artificial paradises” has once again been modified by taking into account as much as possible the original lyrics to improve some rhymes.

The back cover being just finished (except last minute changes, this should be the definitive version), a link to it has been added under the front cover in the music page of the website.

The zoom function is present since numerous months, but remains currently unfinished.

The last verse of the lyrics of “Artificial paradises” has been modified to be closer to the original lyrics; indeed, the lyrics has been translated from French to English by Gloom relatively freely and this last verse modified the original lyrics' sense and disturbed Gloom that changed a lot since that translation, thus, he looked for the original lyrics to see what was possible to do and a more literal translation (with a synonymous that kept something personal from him) perfectly fitted to him.

The musical part of the piece containing this last verse has been replaced by the version without vocals that have a little problem at the beginning on the right track (problem that has been solved during the mixing with the vocals).

Following the lyrics changes, some recording without vocal (older and so less worked and more abrupt) replaced the two pieces that lyrics changed.

Apart from that, the diacriticals signs of the title in ancient Greek has been at last added.

The new technologies talken about before are now used by adding the band's two gigs' videos in broadcasting and by broadcasting the audio files already present that are now moreover downloadable in the (uncompressed) FLAC format.

Besides, Gloom modified the lyrics of the first and the last of the recorded songs to be in agreement with his “present thoughts”, there titles also changed, the first one is now called: “Religāmur” and “Memento mori” becomes “Memento”, “morī” only being one of its sub-titles, moreover, begeondan the titles and the sub-titles in Latin, the rest of the lyrics of this song is only in French (although it might be translated one day, but, in this case, it will be in a few languages and English will in absolutely no case be the first).

Sometimes ago, the domain name so-far-a-way.be has been took back but there has been some technical problems that made the website inaccessible during few days. The following days, that are those last days, the website has been up-dated, almost nothing changed in the content but the container has been considerably improved (and some problems, that came-up with time, has been, in the meantime, corrected). Those changes will ease future improvement for the use of new technologies.

Gloom makes the following statement:

After reading again the lyrics I wrote, I clearly consider them as past, my life changed, my mind changed. Whatever the subjects are old personal stories I don't want to think about any more or thoughts developed are meaningless to me now or even opposite to my present thoughts, don't consider any of the lyrics I wrote that are in this website as representative of who I am now!

Thanks for your understanding.

And, as a news is done, we profit from that to inform you that following to a hard drive corruption that occurred around 2007/2008, the demonstration might never be finished (even if some back-ups, that would be complicated to use, exist).

The band now exist for ten years. On that occasion, a complete recast of the website has been done! About the recording, it still drags on, that leads to some lake of motivation that makes a snowball effect… so, don't expect any news for a while.
