The band's second album, As Shadows Burn, was released in September 2009 and has a somewhat different feel from the first. Gone are the synthetic effects layered on the vocal tracks and the slower, more gothic tracks that one can find on the Forgotten Goddess. Instead, we have something influence by power and progressive metal sounds.
On August 2013, it was reported on their Facebook page that the band is on hiatus which might become permanent.
Towers Of Silence
Echoes of Eternity Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
In a lush garden lie the secrets unrevealed
Once death has fed its hungry
And now the sun takes back the life it gave
An ancient race that has no ashes, not a trace
Five and one rest here, an eternal reunion
Once death has fed its hungry
And now the sun takes back the life it gave

Beyond Bombay High, on Malabar Hill
In a location far and remote lies the setting of this tale
In a lush garden lie the secrets unrevealed
Within this garden holds secrets unknown and untold
Once death has fed its hungry
After the destruction and finality of death
And now the sun takes back the life it gave
The cycle of life continues as the sun consumes all that it gives
An ancient race that has no ashes, not a trace
A group of beings that, after death, leave no remnants or evidence behind
Five and one rest here, an eternal reunion
A total of six rest in this place, reunited for all of eternity
Once death has fed its hungry
After the destruction and finality of death
And now the sun takes back the life it gave
The cycle of life continues as the sun consumes all that it gives
