In the great book of John You're warned of the day When you'll be laid Beneath the cold clay The Angel of Death Comes down from the sky And claim up your soul When the time comes to die When the Angel of Death Comes down after you Can you smile and say That you have been true Can you truthfully say With your dying breath That you're ready to meet The Angel of Death When the lights all grow dim And the dark shadows creep And then your lived ones Are gathered to weep Can you face them and say With your dying breath That you're ready to meet The Angel of Death

about

The third part of the trilogy of pandemic releases which started with the long crooked road to heaven in Church of The Lost, and the inevitable decent into hell with The Devil's Workshop. Memento Mori explores the thought that purgatory is not a place in the afterlife. Instead it is our life here on earth. With all it's triumphs and failures. Remember that we all must die, only then will life come alive.

about

Modus Opera & Eye Vallejo, California

The soundtrack for the foolish Borracho looking for salvation. Finding it in a cup, or on the road, or maybe behind the sofa.
