The Apple
(12th)
This is a tough path; living which is being fruitful through pure hope in the historical meaning of art.
SOL who is looking for its own identity, is finalizing another album enabling to forget its pains which are hidden behind of love, beauty, redness & pleasant taste of an apple.
It wants to review its ancestor perfection during different periods of the history of music; it’s obvious that on this flow everything grows up toward levitation and at the same time, eminency is called.
Now a day, our world is surrounded by fear, ignorance, humility & villainy. Sometimes, it seems that even despite of perception of reality & truth, we stand face to our faces enabling our ego to grow. But it should be noted however, there are some ones who are looking for their own goal; salvation.
We, as members of SOL are trying to reach our mentioned goal without claiming about existing difficulties. We play for our own happiness & try to stay on the way.
We are looking for the essence of being.
We test our humility by playing.
We practice, we meditate, we enjoy, we play and finally we present the result as a souvenir. We are pleased if you hear these sounds of life because we believe that at the time we will release from our solitude.
We believe they whom are interested to hear from SOL, they trust this thought.
We believe whenever the philosophy and meaning are present, the music is flourished, too and except of this, whatever which is named? music?, is fake.
SOL by presenting this new album respects the wisdom & will continue to clear this way, more than ever.
We believe that Music is the sense of soul which is framed in the thought, rises up on the sound and talks to purity & innocence, directly.
And, we believe that Music rescues us from all earthy impurity & lead toward the galaxy of love.
