This remastered album is the musical journey accompanying the harrowing events of Book 3 of "Hinter uns das Land" ("Behind Us The Land"), a poignant novel by Frank Talmon l'Armée. As the war closes in, the Feyerabend family, along with countless others, is forced to make the heart-wrenching decision to flee their beloved home in East Prussia. This collection of 16 tracks captures the emotional turmoil and the perilous journey that unfolds, painting a vivid sonic picture of a family caught in the midst of historical upheaval.

Book 3 plunges the listener into the chaos and fear of the final days of the war in East Prussia. The once-familiar streets of Danzig (now Gdańsk) become a haunting labyrinth of desperation and uncertainty as Inge and her family navigate the treacherous path to the harbor. The music reflects the growing tension, the ever-present threat, and the agonizing choices forced upon those seeking refuge. You will sense in the music the desperation of many refugees, but also their determination to survive.

The journey culminates in the boarding of the "Lappland," a vessel overflowing with refugees, all carrying their own stories of loss and hope. As the ship embarks across the vast and unforgiving Baltic Sea, the music evokes the vastness of the ocean, the precariousness of their situation, and the uncertain future that awaits them. You can hear in the sounds the inner turmoil of the characters: the children who do not yet fully comprehend what is happening and the adults who try to hold on to hope in the face of unimaginable fear.

From haunting melodies that echo the emptiness of a lost home to surging orchestrations that mirror the turbulent sea, this soundtrack captures the full spectrum of human emotion in times of war. Moments of quiet reflection are interspersed with powerful, driving rhythms, reflecting the resilience and determination of those who refuse to give up hope, although they know their lives will never be the same.

This musical collection offers a unique and immersive experience, drawing the listener deeper into the world of "Hinter uns das Land." It's a testament to the enduring power of family, the unwavering human spirit, and the search for peace amidst the ravages of war.

This track is an instrumental dance song that I wrote and hope you like. I incorporated electric guitar rhythms and electric riffs into this dance song.

Un track para quienes desaparecieron para reconstruirse,

para los que entienden que crecer… duele.

Escuchalo con el alma.

Yo No Me Fui Solo Cambié de Piel

An 8-minute epic about the fragments of memory. "Half a Smile Left" is a centerpiece from the concept album "Adelheide's Wisdom."

Inspired by the image of a burnt group photograph, the song explores the bittersweet tragedy of an incomplete past—a half-smile that is both a precious treasure and an open wound.

Musically, the song is a unique fusion: a powerful rock ballad whose fragile verses evoke a baroque minuet. Delicate, harpsichord-like guitar melodies, an oboe, and strings meet a massive, emotional chorus and a dramatic climax that pushes genre boundaries.

A monumental soundscape that tells a story of loss, defiance, and the indestructible power of what remains in the heart. A song destined to conjure a sea of glowing lighters and cell phones at a live concert.

Ein 8-minütiges Epos über die Fragmente der Erinnerung. "Half a Smile Left" ist ein zentraler Song aus dem Konzeptalbum "Adelheide's Wisdom".

Inspiriert vom Bild eines verbrannten Gruppenfotos, erkundet der Song die bittersüße Tragik einer unvollständigen Vergangenheit – ein halbes Lächeln, das zugleich ein kostbarer Schatz und eine offene Wunde ist.

Musikalisch ist der Song eine einzigartige Fusion: eine kraftvolle Rockballade, deren zerbrechliche Strophen an ein barockes Menuett erinnern. Zarte, cembalo-ähnliche Gitarrenmelodien, eine Oboe und Streicher treffen auf einen wuchtigen, emotionalen Refrain und einen dramatischen Ausbruch, der die Grenzen des Genres sprengt.

Ein monumentales Klanggemälde, das von Verlust, Trotz und der unzerstörbaren Kraft dessen erzählt, was im Herzen bleibt. Ein Song, der live ein Meer aus leuchtenden Feuerzeugen und Handys heraufbeschwören würde.

Half A Smile Left -  extended Version

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.

This is not a traditional song, but a musical scene – a cinematic moment based on the true story at the heart of the epic novel "Hinter uns das Land" (The Land Behind Us).

The text is a direct, unabridged translation of a key passage from the novel, depicting an authentic, handed-down moment from the author's mother's, Inge Feyerabend's, escape from East Prussia in the winter of 1945. It captures the intimate vow of familial solidarity as their homeland disappears into the dark.

This is the most direct link between true history, literature, and music within the "Soundtrack Universe".

Dies ist kein klassischer Song, sondern eine vertonte Szene – ein filmischer Moment, der auf der wahren Geschichte im Herzen des Roman-Epos "Hinter uns das Land" basiert.

Der Text ist eine direkte, ungekürzte Übersetzung eines Schlüsselmoments aus dem Roman, der auf den authentischen Erlebnissen der Mutter des Autors, Inge Feyerabend, während der Flucht aus Ostpreußen im Winter 1945 beruht. Er fängt das überlieferte, intime Versprechen des familiären Zusammenhalts ein, während die Heimat im Dunkel verschwindet.

Es ist die direkteste Verbindung zwischen wahrer Geschichte, Literatur und Musik im "Soundtrack Universe".

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

Welcome to the sonic universe of "Behind Us The Land" (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.

Discover the different worlds within this project:

The official soundtrack to the 80-year true story of the Feyerabend family.

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

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

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.

At its heart, 'Behind Us The Land' is more than just the 80-year story of one German family. It's a universal parable about loss, resilience, and the unbreakable will to build a new home from the ruins – a story that repeats itself tens of thousands of times every single day, all over the world. Our music aims to give a voice to this universal experience and to inspire courage.

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.

UNSERE VISION & MISSION

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

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.
