Hunter (Feat. Al Ross)

Album Title: After The Bat Was Freed ... But Before Metal Died

An Ozzy Requiem

Description:

This is more than an album. This is a requiem. A two-part rock opera epic exploring the complete life, legacy, and psychological journey of a rock and roll icon. Performed by the virtual progressive metal band Adelheide's Wisdom.

LP 1: "After The Bat Was Freed ... But Before Metal Died"
A nine-act narrative that chronicles the rise and reflection of a legend. The journey begins in the industrial haze of 1960s Birmingham, capturing the spark of a Beatles-inspired dream ("The Day The Bat Was Freed"). It crashes through the chaotic birth of a new sound ("Sounds Like a Bunch of Cats Fightin'"), explores the creation of the demonic "Madman" persona ("They Call Me The Madman"), and descends into the self-destructive excesses of the 80s ("Wings of Sin"). The album finds its emotional core in the heartbreaking ballad "I Was Just A Dreamer," before culminating in a final, monumental tribute to the man behind the myth ("Prince of Eternal Fire").

7. I Was Just a Dreamer

The turning point: The album's grand, emotional power ballad. This is the "morning after," the moment of catharsis and vulnerable reflection after all the excess. The loud facade of the "Madman" crumbles, revealing the heartbroken dreamer behind the mask.

Official Song Description: Adelheide's Wisdom – "I Was Just A Dreamer"
What remains when the spotlights fade and the myths begin to crack?

With "I Was Just A Dreamer," the virtual band Adelheide's Wisdom releases the first single and emotional centerpiece from their monumental concept album, "The Laughing Shadow: An Ozzy Requiem."

This epic power ballad is a profound and heartbreaking confession that looks behind the facade of the "Prince of Darkness." It tells a story of deep inner conflict – from the celebrated rock star on the world's biggest stage to the lonely "ghost at home," alienated from his own family and confronted with a lifetime of "scrambled eggs and mistakes."

Beginning with a fragile, intimate piano theme, the song unfolds into a massive, orchestral anthem. The haunting duet vocals of Adelheide and André guide the listener through a landscape of regret, pain, and the faint, almost lost hope for forgiveness.

"I Was Just A Dreamer" is more than just a song; it is the key to understanding the entire requiem. It is a meditation on the price of fame, the walls we build around ourselves, and the tragic search of a man trying to master the one role that always seemed out of reach: that of a father.

We all together worked day and night. As the Godfather of Metal was a musical role model and one of the first albums that our producer bought was 'Paranoid'.

Lyrics (by Frank Talmon l'Armée]

I Was Just a Dreamer

Spotlights burn my face, 
the crowds scream my name 
But it ain't my name, 
just a mask in the game. 
At home there are wrinkled hands and plates, 
Scrambled eggs and a life of mistakes.

Who's the mask, who's the face? 
Am I lost inside this place?

I'm a fading star with a burning heart, 
A joke to them, 
a ghost at home from the start. 
I'm screaming out but it falls apart...

All he ever wanted... was a father

Frozen clocks in an empty room, 
Maps lead nowhere, 
the compass a tomb.

But the wind still carries ancient tunes, 
Of brighter days and kinder moons.

And maybe tomorrow... 
The sun will break through... 

I was just a dreamer 
I dreamt my life anyway 
I was just a dreamer 
missing mostly better days

[Solo]

And the wind still carries ancient tunes, 
Of brighter days and kinder moons.

And maybe tomorrow... 
The sun will break through... 

I was just a dreamer 
I dreamt my life anyway 
I was just a dreamer 
missing mostly better days

They cheer for the beast... 
but my kids...

I Was Just a Dreamer

Official Song Description: Adelheide's Wisdom – "The Day When Metal Died (Act III: The Historical Marker)"

What does it sound like when 250,000 fans mourn their hero in unison?

Adelheide's Wisdom delivers a preview of their forthcoming epic, "The Day When Metal Died," with the release of the monumental third act, "The Historical Marker." This track is not just a song; it's a visceral, immersive experience designed to place the listener directly into the heart of a massive, passionate stadium crowd.

Driven by the raw, majestic energy of classic 80s heavy metal, the song combines galloping rhythms and soaring twin-guitar harmonies with a soundscape that captures the electric atmosphere of a legendary live concert. In this powerful chapter of the requiem, the private grief of the earlier acts transforms into a collective, defiant roar.

"The Historical Marker" is the moment the fans raise their voices, the moment a tribute becomes a timeless anthem. It's a sonic monument where the roar of the audience becomes an instrument in itself, creating a powerful, shared ritual of remembrance.

This is Act III of a larger story, a Glimpse into the epic scale of the full requiem to come.

Rescue call

Double Take

"Last Christmas With You" is a song about longing, hope, and waiting for someone to return—inspired by countless stories of people separated from their loved ones by war. Set in a melancholic East Prussian folk music aesthetic, the track blends traditional instruments like accordion, violin, and guitar with a deeply emotional narrative.
A soldier’s voice, hoping to reunite in the snow, is accompanied by a tender female voice and a violin carrying the melody like a memory through the cold. "Last Christmas With You" is a listening experience that asks the universal question: "How many Christmases do we spend far from those we love?"

---

"Last Christmas With You" ist ein Lied über Sehnsucht, Hoffnung und das Warten auf Rückkehr – inspiriert von den unzähligen Geschichten von Menschen, die im Krieg von ihren Lieben getrennt wurden. Eingebettet in eine melancholische, ostpreußische Volksmusik-Ästhetik, verbindet der Song traditionelle Instrumente wie Akkordeon, Violine und Gitarre mit einer tief emotionalen Erzählung.
Die Stimme eines Soldaten, der im Schnee auf ein Wiedersehen hofft, wird begleitet von einer zarten Frauenstimme und einer Geige, die die Melodie wie eine Erinnerung durch die Kälte trägt. "Last Christmas With You" ist ein Hörerlebnis, das die universelle Frage stellt: "Wie viele Weihnachten verbringen wir fern von denen, die wir lieben?"

lyrics:

[Verse]
All this snow
Falling like we never know
Time to run
Go
And save the soul
Hope to see you soon
We keep the silence
It's better for the kids
No sirens
So afraid for you
Please don't die
Love
I wish it wasn't true
I hope that I can hold you

[Chorus]
Next Christmas
Next Christmas
Next Christmas with you
Next Christmas
Next Christmas
Next Christmas with you

[Verse]
This red sky
Coming over me at night
Can't run 'cause it ain't my life
I'm supposed to wait for you
I'ma sit here
Stay inside
And hold on to my Christ
I can't take it no more
No
I pray that I can hold you

[Chorus]
Next Christmas
Next Christmas
Next Christmas with you
Next Christmas
Next Christmas
Next Christmas with you
Next Christmas
Next Christmas
Next Christmas with you
Next Christmas
Next Christmas
Next Christmas with you

[Verse]
She said
"I just wanted to write you and say I'm alive
Where are you
Babe?
And I really miss you
I hope that this war can be done before Christmas
Please be safe and get back to the kids
I need to hold you
I'm losing it
And I'm holding on to the thought of being with you"

[Chorus]
Next Christmas
Next Christmas
Next Christmas with you
Next Christmas
Next Christmas
Next Christmas with you
Next Christmas
Next Christmas
Next Christmas with you
Next Christmas
Next Christmas
Next Christmas with you

[Verse]
So I write back
"My dear
I'm alive
I'm here
And I miss you
Love
And I'm holding on to the thought of being with you"

[Chorus]
Next Christmas
Next Christmas
Next Christmas with you
Next Christmas
Next Christmas
Next Christmas with you
Next Christmas
Next Christmas
Next Christmas with you
Next Christmas
Next Christmas
Next Christmas with you


Last Christmas With You

REFUGEE 

We heard the guns
Rolling over the hill
We saw the greed
Moving in for the kill
And just like the wolf
In a little straw town
It would not stop
Until they blew our door down

We all pray for the day
We no longer need to run

We Couldn't stay
Couldn't stay there one more day
Couldn't stay
Couldn't stay there one more day
We couldn't stay

Kicking up dust
On the side of the road
And we fled our homes
While we watched them explode
Our legs were so tired
Our lungs out of breath
But you'll run till you're ragged
While you're avoiding your death

We all pray for the day
We no longer need to run

We Couldn't stay
Couldn't stay there one more day
Couldn't stay
Couldn't stay there one more day
We couldn't stay


Our children are hungry
Our clothes smell of fear
No one can blame you thinking
God isn't here

We all pray for the day
We no longer need to run

We Couldn't stay
Couldn't stay there one more day
Couldn't stay
Couldn't stay there one more day
We couldn't stay
Couldn't stay
Couldn't stay there one more day
Couldn't stay
Couldn't stay there one more day
We couldn't stay

Ghosts of Christmas Past (Beyond & Before Music feat. Adelheide’s Wisdom)

A half-century captured in 82 BPM. Written in G-Minor, this haunting duet tells the story of a love frozen in time on Christmas Eve 1945, only to find its resolution fifty years later in a quiet hospital room.

Starting with a melancholic piano and evolving into a driving Celtic Punk beat at 150 BPM (double-time feel), this track symbolizes the sudden rush of a heart that hasn't truly beaten for decades. It is a pivotal moment in the Adelheide’s Wisdom saga and a cornerstone of the Sonic Universe for the novel 'Hinter uns das Land' (The Land Behind Us).

Ghosts of Christmas Past (Beyond & Before Music feat. Adelheide’s Wisdom)

Ein halbes Jahrhundert in 82 BPM. In G-Moll gehalten, erzählt dieses eindringliche Duett die Geschichte einer Liebe, die am Heiligabend 1945 in der Zeit einfror und erst fünfzig Jahre später in einem stillen Krankenzimmer ihre Auflösung findet.

Beginnend mit einem melancholischen Klavier, das sich in einen treibenden Celtic-Punk-Beat (150 BPM Double-Time-Feeling) verwandelt, symbolisiert dieser Track das plötzliche Rasen eines Herzens, das jahrzehntelang nicht wirklich geschlagen hat. Es ist ein zentraler Moment in der Adelheide’s Wisdom Saga und ein Eckpfeiler des Sonic Universe zum Roman „Hinter uns das Land“.

Genre: Celtic Fusion / Orchestral Punk / Storytelling

Themen: Krieg, Verlust, Wiedersehen, Resilienz

Ghosts of Christmas Past

He Knows Your Name~

When the morning breaks and light appears,
Mercy’s waiting, strong and near.
Before a word is on your tongue,
His kindness meets you with the dawn.
He watched you through the longest night,
Held your heart till morning light.

Lift your eyes, receive His grace,
He is smiling on your face.

The Lord bless you and keep you,
The Lord make His face shine on you.
Be gracious, let His peace surround you.
The Lord lift up His countenance,
Let His favor rest upon you.
You are seen, you are known...
He knows your name.

When the road feels heavy underneath your feet,
When your strength feels incomplete,
He sends the mist, refreshing rain,
To remind your soul He reigns.
Every promise still stands true,
He is faithful, He is with you.

Take His peace into today,
He goes before you all the way.

The Lord bless you and keep you,
The Lord make His face shine on you.
Be gracious, let His peace surround you.
The Lord lift up His countenance,
Let His favor rest upon you.
You are seen, you are known...
He knows your name.

Morning light, rise in us,
Hope for today, enough for us.
Every step, every breath,
Held in the goodness of His strength.
Morning light, rise in us,
Peace like a river, covering us.
We receive what You proclaim,
We are blessed in Jesus’ name.

The Lord bless you and keep you,
The Lord make His face shine on you.
Be gracious, let His peace surround you.
The Lord lift up His countenance,
Let His favor rest upon you.
You are seen, you are known...
He knows your name.

From the sunrise to the night,
You are always in His sight.
Walk in peace, walk unafraid...
He knows your name.

He Knows Your Name

Cheated

An Epic Novel. A Sonic Universe. One True Story.

Welcome to the sonic universe of "The Land Behind Us" (Hinter uns das Land). What began as a soundtrack for an epic historical novel has evolved into a global, cross-genre music phenomenon, celebrated by millions of listeners and a worldwide community of artists.

Redefining the boundaries of storytelling, this project offers the definitive novel soundtrack experience—an immersive journey where historical literature meets high-end sonic production.

Discover the different worlds within this project:

The official soundtrack to the 80-year true story of the Feyerabend family and Inge Feyerabend, the mother of the author.

The epic progressive metal of the virtual band Adelheide's Wisdom.

The chart-topping indie pop of the virtual artist Ulla F.

Expanding the Horizon: You will also find special projects like our tributes to rock icons (e.g., Ozzy) or the Afro-House rhythms of Aya Aminata (Ivory Coast). Why? Because the core themes of our novel—resilience, the struggle for survival, and the celebration of life—are universal. Whenever we encounter these powerful narratives in other contexts, from rock history to the vibrant culture of West Africa, we translate them into our sound. It is all connected.

Helmed by author, producer, and lifelong music curator Frank Talmon l'Armée, this project is the result of a deep-seated passion for music and storytelling. As the human visionary, he employs a hybrid method of traditional songwriting and the pioneering use of AI tools as his "orchestra" to bring this monumental saga to life.

This is a place for deep listeners, for fans of epic stories and genre-defying music. Dive in, explore the albums and playlists, and become part of a story that connects the past with the future.

OUR VISION & MISSION

Our Vision: We believe that resilience can make even the deepest wounds bearable.

Our Mission: This project is dedicated to a profoundly human, true story to achieve two things:

To Bear Witness: To show what war does to ordinary people and how its scars echo for generations.

To Give Courage: To strengthen and inspire anyone who has suffered loss or lived through difficult times.

This is music as a testament. A story that repeats itself every day.

A Beyond & Before Music production.

(Deutsche Version)

Ein Romanepos. Ein Klanguniversum. Eine wahre Geschichte.

Willkommen im Klang-Universum von "Hinter uns das Land". Was als Soundtrack zu einem epischen historischen Roman begann, hat sich zu einem globalen, genre-übergreifenden Musikphänomen entwickelt, das von Millionen von Hörern und einer weltweiten Community von Künstlern gefeiert wird.

Als Pionier des 'Novel Soundtrack'-Genres erschaffen wir eine klangliche Dimension, die das Lesen in ein immersives Erlebnis verwandelt und die Seele der Worte hörbar macht

Entdecken Sie die verschiedenen Welten innerhalb dieses Projekts:

Den offiziellen Soundtrack zur 80-jährigen, wahren Saga der Familie Feyerabend.

Den epischen Progressive Metal der virtuellen Band Adelheide's Wisdom.

Den chartstürmenden Indie-Pop der virtuellen Künstlerin Ulla F.

Den Horizont erweitern: Sie werden hier auch besondere Projekte finden, wie unsere Hommagen an Rock-Ikonen (z.B. Ozzy) oder die Afro-House-Rhythmen von Aya Aminata (Elfenbeinküste). Warum? Weil die Kernthemen unseres Romans – Resilienz, der Überlebenskampf und die Feier des Lebens – universell sind. Wann immer uns diese kraftvollen Narrative in anderen Kontexten begegnen, sei es in der Rockgeschichte oder der pulsierenden Kultur Westafrikas, greifen wir sie auf. Alles ist verbunden.

Geführt von Autor, Produzent und Musik-Kurator Frank Talmon l'Armée, ist dieses Projekt das Ergebnis einer lebenslangen Leidenschaft für Musik und das Erzählen von Geschichten. Als menschlicher Visionär nutzt er eine hybride Methode aus traditionellem Songwriting und dem wegweisenden Einsatz von KI-Werkzeugen als sein "Orchester", um diese monumentale Saga zum Leben zu erwecken.

Dies ist ein Ort für anspruchsvolle Hörer, für Fans von epischen Geschichten und genre-sprengender Musik. Tauchen Sie ein, erforschen Sie die Alben und Playlists und werden Sie Teil einer Geschichte, die die Vergangenheit mit der Zukunft verbindet.

UNSERE VISION & MISSION

Unsere Vision: Wir glauben daran, dass Resilienz selbst die tiefsten Wunden erträglich machen kann.

Unsere Mission: Dieses Projekt widmet sich einer zutiefst menschlichen, wahren Geschichte, um zwei Dinge zu erreichen:

Zeugnis ablegen: Zu zeigen, was Krieg mit normalen Menschen macht und wie seine Narben über Generationen nachhallen.

Mut machen: Jeden zu stärken und zu inspirieren, der Verlust erlitten oder schwere Zeiten durchlebt hat.

Das ist Musik als Vermächtnis. Eine Geschichte, die sich täglich wiederholt.

Ein Projekt von Beyond & Before Music.
