    E is dark but hopeful, is anxiously rooted in deep tranquility.
    E is an infinite void surrounded by optimism.
    E is a colourful grey.
    Explanations are scaffolds we built to understand life. E is not trying to be an explanation. It’s an attempt to avoid one.

    The second album of the Quartet Lithium led by drummer and composer Peter Lenz is entitled E. Jazz esthetics are seamlessly melting with influences from contemporary classical music, independent rock and improvised music. It’s some kind of chamber jazz. With power.

Escape 06:34
Escape A shattering cry of despair, so faint I can’t hear it. A blunt, overwhelming drone, swelling into an utter numbness before it implodes. Leaving a vast emptiness. Absorbing all fortitude. Like the hopelessness it’s coming from. Come you grey beauty. Your silky touch calms my dry eyes. Your clean breath cools the dread crawling up my throat. Your observant presence escorts me through the boundless space of doubt. Purity envelops the path ahead. It fills my heart with gratitude. And then Tranquility.

Exhale 02:47
Exhale Indifference is the filter of my soul Tranquility is repression disguised as optimism Fear Uncertainty Self-pity Repression is dull and narrow Everything has to go The solution is trust Everything is transient My optimism is endless
