track-list:
Graceless Under Pressure

To The Final Bell Toll
‘LUC-II-FARUL’ is a great continuum to where the debut album ‘The Counterbalance’ left.
The album has speed, heaviness and bits and pieces of progressive rock.
“You could say that ‘LUC-II-FARUL’ is a perky album, partly because we weren’t afraid to use major chords in it. The album is also very honest. Songs came out just as we wanted, and like with the debut album, this second album is musically just the kind of stuff we want to spin in the turntable.”
There is a main theme in the album.
‘LUC-II-FARUL’ is a lightbringer, which brings a flicker of light.
Small things in life are the ones that matter, and positive things should be enforced even though they wouldn’t take the bad stuff away.
“We managed to veil the lyrics well, and we wanted nothing to be told directly so everyone really needs to focus and think. On the other hand, the album works also really well as a ‘switch my brain off and give me a beer’ -kind of moment, so there’s nothing to worry about. Music straight from the heart, and hopefully as many people as possible find the album, listens to it, and makes their own opinion whether to like it or not. We like it and there definitely will be more to come.”

‘The Year of The Sacred’
composition and lyrics by Antza Talala
Finnish melodic metal band Death’s-Head and the Space Allusion is set to release their second album ‘LUC-II-FARUL’ in November 17th 2023.
Now the final single ‘The Year of The Sacred’ is released on music services.
Guitarist Antza Talala comments:
“‘The Year of The Sacred’ is a bit more futuristic piece. It has a large doze of sequencers and keyboards, but it fits well into the album. The lyrics describe Earth as a red ball in the mouths of the politicians, and when politics have become a part of the entertainment industry and popular culture, it’s really time to crack whips at them. But will there be a year, when significantly more wise visitors from another dimension will come and kick this planet back on track?”

‘Beyond The Sun’
lyrics and composition by Antza Talala
Finnish Death’s-Head and the Space Allusion is set to release their second album later in 2023.
Now they present the second single from the upcoming full lenght.
Guitarist Antza Talala comments:
“Our second single release ‘Beyond The Sun’ is a cheery 3 minutes and a half with a couple of killer guitar solos and a keyboard solo. The chorus is bathing in rapture with its polyphonic singing. The song brings a positive touch on life with its lyrics and how people can overcome challenges in their own lives. Moving forward in life is success.”

Finnish Death’s-Head and the Space Allusion is set to release their second album later in 2023.
The first single ‘The Son of Shahar’ from the upcoming album has been released.
Guitarist Antza Talala comments:
“‘The Son of Shahar’ is a heavy and mid-tempo song that felt appropriate to release as the first bite. Lyric-wise it’s quite simple. The way of the world today is frankly quite hilarious, and despite all the promises the second coming of Jesus isn’t showing any signs of happening, you might as well call for The ‘Son of Dawn’ and probe his brain for ideas. Truthfully, there might be an idea from human behavioural models behind the lyrics, but we let everyone reach their own conclusions.”
DEATH’S-HEAD AND THE SPACE ALLUSION, a band founded in 2016 in Oulu, Finland, is a combination of melodies, metal and clean vocals.
The band released their debut album ‘The Counterbalance ‘ in 2019 and now they are ready to release their second album.
A few singles from the album will be released before people can listen to the full album.
This originally named band has an interesting way of infusing their music with melodies, metal and the raging spirit of rock with its guitar solos, and all this with a progressive touch.
Familiar atmospheres and vibes from the 80’s can be heard in their music as well, which come from a large quantity of keyboards in their songs.
The band has members from several known bands including To/Die/For, Burning Point, Antipope and Downstone.
DEATH’S-HEAD AND THE SPACE ALLUSION is a great, new kind of a modern sounding band where bold influences from the 80’s can be heard.
This excellent metal palette is brilliantly brought forward with ‘The Counterbalance’ debut album.
The upcoming second album will continue on the same path.
