I think the band members in the album art are in very big...! and at first I thought the picture is for their youth.

But songs names look promising...

Arvigeus · **Posted:** 24 Aug 2010, 20:16

Are these known songs fast or slow? I really like the name "All 4 Nothing 4 All". Wish that Mark does again some background noise

redbossfan · **Posted:** 24 Aug 2010, 20:21

As I recall there was no slow song in those I heard, but I may be wrong. That was back in April, way too long ago

I do remember they sounded different from the first album and I really liked them.

New tourdates are out now :!:

Unfortunately only in Finland but the "Release-Party" could be worth to spend myself a short trip to Helsinki. Does anyone plan to fly over from Hamburg, too? :roll:

I have never seen POTF or PE live so I haven't heard Phoenix Effect's new songs yet (besides "A Light to Guide" from their myspace). But the new album looks extremely promising! Not to mention the fact that the song titles are amazingly awesome!!! I can't wait for the new album!!

In case you have not heard it yet: Euphoria

that sounds very promising :lol:

VesQ · **Posted:** 13 Sep 2010, 16:14

My favorites from PE are King See No Evil and A Light To Guide! Although I haven't listened to all their songs. :roll:

But maybe I'll do it right now!

I've been trying to write down the lyrics of Euphoria, or what I could understand from them.
I warn you, it might contain mistakes and missing parts :roll:

EUPHORIA

Euphoria out here, so please come in
and help me to deny lie (?)
----line I can't understand----
to help me fly, I'm so afraid to try

Drop your ball, fire the guns, do anything you want
Kill the flame, kill the love, you are the chosen one.
Losing me, losing you, the only thing I want
but still you are on my mind

CHORUS:
This war keeps going on, but I won't lay down and die
You can strike me down, but I will not live a lie

Deep inside these (?)

Euphoria goodbye, the lights got thick
but I recognize these feelings
No longer shackled by the time
I used to shine a light of false believes

Drop your ball, fire the guns, anything you want
To play the same is to lose the game, so I give up the hunt
It's by far the best thing I've done

CHORUS

Is this the right conclusion, or just my mind's allusion(?)
Show me, cause I don't know where to go
Is this annihilation mess(?) on suffocation
Tell me, what do I need to know

CHORUS

Euphoria

Euphoria I´m here
So please come in and help me to deny
To numb my will, some more wine, to help me fly
I´m so afraid to try

Drop your bombs, fire the guns
Do anything you want
Kill the flame, kill the love
You are the chosen one
Losing me, losing you
The only thing I want
But still, you are on my mind

This war keeps going on, but I won’t lay down and die
You can strike me down, but I will not live a lie
Live inside these dreams

Euphoria goodbye
Your lies cut deep, but I recognize these feelings
No longer shackled by the time
I used to shine, the light of false beliefs

Drop your bombs, fire the guns
Anything you want
To play the same is to lose the game
So I gave up the hunt
And it's by far the best deed I've done

This war keeps going on, but I won’t lay down and die
You can strike me down, but I will not live a lie

Is this the right conclusion
Or just my minds illusion
Show me cos I don´t know where to go
Is this annihilation
Bliss or suffocation
Tell me what I need to know

No, I did not find that out by listening. Janne posted the lyrics

Lisa · **Posted:** 13 Sep 2010, 17:46

really?
(am I so dumb that I can't find lyrics not even when they're posted by the singer?)

thank you for posting them here - now some lines make much more sense

redbossfan · **Posted:** 13 Sep 2010, 17:58

You are welcome

(and you are not dumb, they were just hard to find)

Mahoniara · **Posted:** 17 Sep 2010, 19:59

I can't wait for their next album. I hope it will be great like Cyanide Skies (or more great

)! Euphoria is promising :wink:

sunkid · **Posted:** 19 Sep 2010, 22:43

Where did you find the lyric of Euphoria :?:

Finnish Sonja · **Posted:** 20 Sep 2010, 08:37

sunkid · **Posted:** 20 Sep 2010, 09:58

Yeah, already done! See you, hear you, feel you online! :wink:

sunkid · **Posted:** 25 Sep 2010, 23:06

Come on - no comments to the last shows?

Snow · **Posted:** 26 Sep 2010, 22:29

I hadn't listened to Euphoria until now ( yeah I know :oops:

) and I am impressed! Awesome!

Broken Promises and Lucky Star (feat. Marko) have been my faves to date and Euphoria is bumping itself right on up there!

Thanks guys!

I love Phoenix Effect. Magic and Lucky Star are my personal favourites. I haven't heard Euphoria yet - I'll probably wait for the album to come out

Sir · **Posted:** 05 Oct 2010, 22:50

After hours of listening I must say that A Light to Guide is a pretty romantic and impressive song. I guess my first opinion was so skeptical because of Twilight Theater release which made me unable to perceive any other music. Now this condition has gone, and my mind isn’t blurred by the masterpieces of our favourite guys. The new Phoenix Effect album seems to be much more touching and exciting than the first one. I really like how A Light to Guide, Babylon and Euphoria sound. Strong compositions, good vocals. Nice work, guys!

Snow · **Posted:** 07 Oct 2010, 07:21

I am really getting attached to Euphoria and I love Lucky Star and Broken Promises! I look forward to the new album!! :wink:

paoletta · **Posted:** 11 Oct 2010, 13:53

I can't wait to see them live this thursday....I've heard by youtube some of their songs and they are absolutely great...

CrimsonCat · **Posted:** 12 Oct 2010, 16:20

A Perfectly Good Day is my favourite song from them, King See No Evil and Lucky Star are also good songs.

Lisa · **Posted:** 12 Oct 2010, 16:40

preordered the new CD this morning... order status says it's just been shipped

can't wait to listen to it ^^

Snow · **Posted:** 12 Oct 2010, 18:55

Is it Thursday yet? :shock:

Oh my bad, dang, only Tuesday! So two more days....hmmm...disappointing. Ok will check back!

This a very good album

Took a few times of listening to get into, but SCI & Euphoria are indeed marvellous songs.

paoletta · **Posted:** 17 Oct 2010, 08:29

The gig was great, those guys have everything...good presence on the stage, great music, felt totally good to stay there to listen them

Lisa · **Posted:** 17 Oct 2010, 14:35

The new album is great! Love their music. And I think Janne's singing is getting better and better.
"All 4 nothing 4 all" rocks, and I've fallen in love with "Killing the Afterglow".
At the end I was expecting a very calm slow song like Magic, so when "Stand Your Ground" started my first reaction was :shock:

and my second reaction was

Nice ending.

I was wondering one thing: on the booklet it says songs were written by Phoenix Effect & Marko Saaresto... are all lyrics by Marko or were some songs written by someone of PHNX?

Arvigeus · **Posted:** 21 Oct 2010, 12:03

Funny, their discography page still says they have one album only...

Yep, they have been quite busy lately and updating the website hasn't been their top priority... hopefully they get the info up to date soon.
