In collaboration with people like Leif Edling (Candlemass, Krux) Mats Levén (Krux, ex Therion, Y. Malmsteen) and Declan Burke (Darwins radio, Frost) among many others, He gives us an album with the ambient but symphonic production known from Carptree and with a clear presence of Heavier elements . Big arrangements, small details, different vocalists and musicians specially chosen for each song makes it divers and intriguing. You are given one hour of music and exclusive artwork, once again by the independent Label FOSFOR Creation
Now in 2009, Jupiter Society releases the sequel called "Terraform" again with a lot of prominent fellow musicians like the last time, slightly different crew this time with Kulle and Marcus Jidell (Royal Hunt) on lead guitars, and Lars Sköld (Tiamat) on Drums and also Christer Jansson (Roxette among many others) on additional Drums. Mats Levén (krux, ex Therion, ex Y.Malmsteen and others) and Leif Edling (Candlemass, Krux) are still members of the society among others.

The Pilot
Jupiter Society Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Not meant to give a clear view.
Not meant to be more than barely understandable.
This is just the Beginning.
Life is still real
Just not like before
Evolution has not always
been kind to those who left planet earth
No war still fighting
No sadness still desire
Kate Bishop the bitch is missing
Mr Henry is dead not dead enough
We still don't know
Still not in full control
We thought we knew our world
Evolution has not ever
taken care of those who need or deserve
No religion still superstition
No disease still suffering
Billy left home will not come back
someone's abducted, Keith and Jane never met
This day is going to be a good day
Starts with silence, darkness and emptiness
And then the deepest of sounds coming from behind
Full of expectations, this is a good day
Time's never standing still
We can no longer tell
How far away
we are from home
This world is big enough
is big enough for us
We just don't know
if we're alone
One way, one day
two ways five days
Silent skies, confusing lies
deepest night, the answers within sight
The lyrics to Jupiter Society's song The Pilot are deeply philosophical, and seem to communicate uncertainty and ambiguity. The singer states that the song is not meant to be a guide or to provide any sort of clear understanding. Rather, it seems to be an exploration of the unknown, a journey through the mysteries of life. The repeating phrase "we thought we knew our world" suggests that our perception of reality is incomplete and that there is much we do not understand.
The perspective in the song is interesting, as it seems to be from the viewpoint of someone who is not quite human or, perhaps, from the future. The lyrical references to "evolution" and the "deepest night" suggest a grander scope that goes beyond human experience. The singer states that "time's never standing still" and that "we can no longer tell how far away we are from home". This sense of disorientation and confusion hints at a larger, more complex universe that is beyond our understanding.
