The music itself is difficult to define, it resembles a soundtrack and has also close ties to New Age. Most of the lyrics are in English.

This album (released under the Nuclear Blast label) was marked by participation of a large number of musicians. It was produced by Bernd Wendlandt who wrote all 15 songs (4 of which are covers, though strongly transformed so the originals are difficult to recognize). Most cellos are played by B. Deutung, the guitars by Pitti Piatkowsky, other musicians contributed only on single tracks: Apocalyptica, Joachim Witt, Letzte Instanz, miLú/Mila Mar, Inchtabokatables, Roadernallee and Nik Page.

Previously, Claudia was a singer of German pop band X-perience, who had two hits: A Neverending Dream and Magic Fields. Throughout April 2005 Angelzoom formation is supporting Apocalyptica on their European tour.

Doomsday
Angelzoom Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I couldn't lie in my bed
I was lost in fear of death
Couldn't find a way to sleep
The abyss ahead was dark and deep

But someone then opened my mind
Made me able to fly with time, ahead
The stranger was holding my hand

And I could see the rebirth of a land

On the eve of our doomsday
I fell in love in a stronger way
The magic creature from deepest space
Gave me safety and hope for a better future place

I couldn't lie in my bed
I was lost in fear of death
Couldn't find a way to sleep
The abyss ahead was dark and deep

But someone then opened my mind
Made me able to fly with time, ahead
The stranger was holding my hand
And I could see the rebirth of a land

On the eve of our doomsday
I fell in love in a stronger way
The magic creature from deepest space
Gave me safety and hope for a better future place

On the eve of our doomsday
I fell in love in a stronger way
The lovely stranger from a distant place
Gave me safety and hope for a better future place

On the eve of our doomsday
I fell in love in a stronger way

The lovely stranger from deepest space
Gave me safety and hope for a better future place

Though the fear of death and the unknown loom, the presence of hope allows the singer to see the possibility of life and rebirth. The idea of a "magic creature" from deep space could also symbolize the power of imagination and creativity to inspire hope and provide a sense of safety in uncertain times.
