Order the album “Chasing Shadows“ now: “Chimera“ is the second single from the upcoming 5th record by SUNNATA. Follow SUNNATA on: @sunnataband “Chimera“ video is an edited version of experimental animation “Omega“ from 1970, directed by Donald Fox and distributed by Pyramid Films. Source: Omega deals with the end of mankind on earth, prophesying man's liberation from his earthly bounds to roam the universe at will. By sending an “energy ray“ to the sun and harnessing its solar power, man is able to make an evolutionary leap. The film can be used to explore the outer limits of the concepts of death, evolution, the after life and the future of mankind. A visual experience to inspire young filmmakers. Music-wise, “Chimera“ manifests the presence of duality across the entire universe. The idea to present a hybrid creature as the main topic came after having listened to the song’s composition that contains a bizarre mix of many genres and ideas, glued together, that forms a very compelling passage. Chimera is an amalgamation, binding those pieces together to form a single entity. The song’s lyrics bind many paradoxes together, posing them as something inherent to reality. The very early dreamy recall of hinduistic Maya sets the tone of the piece - an ever-evolving appearance, an ever-changing shape of reality. The main point of navigating through a dynamic, fluctuating reality is to come to an understanding that this is the only constant assumption of it. The cycle of life - the one who comes from the horizon and goes away - is prevalent like an imperative. Those who try to deny it and shape the world to their individual needs are fighting for the cause that is unreachable. The evolution binds units together but also sets them apart. Paradoxes are part of our reality. Only the one, who is born and dead at the same time, prevails. LYRICS: Maya (aaah) Chimera Maya (aaah) Chimera Way May Stay Away Who comes from the horizon? Who goes away? One who is born and dead and One who prevails Oh chimera Oh Tara Oh chimera Oh Mara Blood worn Sealed vault Anywhere I'm making another sign, Any right is sorrow Anywhere I'm fighting force of life Any right is sorrow So you wrath on So you wrath on us Omen of path And the right is wrong Right is wrong Alive at last And the right is wrong Right is wrong
