This song was composed by me in 1996, arranged and played with my dearest friend Domenico Foti and recorded on a Fostex 8-track reel-to-reel recorder. On its 25th birthday we decided to replay that demo with new, quality instruments in a studio.
The title is prophetic, since I've been through an ordeal culminated with a liver transplant and now, in 2023 I am really reborn!
My influences in composing the track and the arrangement come mainly from Mike Oldfield (Mount Teide) and Pat Metheny (It's for You).

Denimor - Fabulous Fantabulous

I found this on an old computer - it's a demo for either the In Absentia or Deadwing albums, something that never got used - I can't be totally sure because while it shares lyrical themes with the songs on In Absentia, one of the melodies seems to relate to another piece from Deadwing era.  I don't remember too much about it, other than I guess it wasn't good enough to get any further than this.  Rescued from the abyss, so I only have a compressed audio file of this one, sorry about that.

Godfearing (demo 2001-03?)

A tribal experiment catched live with noisy bells on the theme that would become the introduction of EMOTIONAL BREAKDOWN.

THE EXPERIMENT

Here we all are
Born into a struggle
To come so far
But end up returning to dust

Oxfam panache tips his hat
(laces undone)
He has no truck with idle chat
(work to be done)
The songs he learned from scratched LP's
Stops in mid-flow to sip his tea

He strums the chords with less than grace
(songs we all know)
Each passing year etched on his face
(sun, rain or snow)
The words he sings are not his own
They speak of things he'll never know

Every part will be re- played by every component of my band.
