Liner Notes
Sad Day on Planet Earth is a work on which LILLIAN AXE, while keeping the core of melodic hard rock, drew emotion with a deeper shadow. The thickness of the guitar and delicate vocal melody melt together, creating a depth that does not end in mere exhilaration. It is a record on which the band’s matured expressiveness is fully displayed.
On “Jesus Wept,” “Sad Day On Planet Earth” and “Divine,” even in the powerful songs, an air that somehow evokes loneliness runs underneath. Songs like “Ignite,” “Within Your Reach” and “Nocturnal Symphony” breathe the band’s full playing too. That contrast is the reason the work shows a new expression each time you listen back. It is a full record binding heaviness, lyricism and deep emotion.
