First impressions are a powerful thing, and I don’t think I’ve ever known a band set such a good first impression as this. ‘Pacifying’, the first track on this debut album from Ukrainian band Sleep in Heads, is the most grand and arresting song you are likely to hear this year…this is a damn impressive debut and an album they should be immensely proud of.
“Sleep in Heads made a good album proposing a new prog heavy rock, a work certainly very interesting for its sound and atmosphere created by both from sweet melodies and much rougher sounds, all finished by a good production that makes the album a very unique work of its genre.

Track By Track explained by vocalist Sonya:
1. The song “Pacifying” is an opening word of the album, which combines the meaning and message of all subsequent tracks – to discover inner peace, find your own way, be in harmony with yourself and the world, without escaping to your illusions and not hiding under the masks of lies.
2. The song “Vagrant” is about a man who wanders about in his thoughts and cannot find his own way of life. He spends his whole life searching for answers and places under the sun.
3. “Deceiver” talks about how much you can hurt a person with just one biting word, in one moment, ruining the confidence.
4. “Time Like the Sand” is the bitter truth about humanity, which for centuries has been chasing after profit, was hiding behind lies and destroying our world with its own hands.
5. The song “Blue Fear” is related in meaning to “Vagrant”. This is a story about a person to whom they are trying to reach out, to help get out of the gray whirlpool, but he dissolves in its own world.
6. “Secret Shelter” is a Utopia world we mentally escape into, fleeing from everyday experiences. An illusory world without evil and pain in which one can find complete tranquility.
