A new name was given to the band: LEGEND MAKER. The Spanish lyrics were translated and an American singer by the name of Michael Grant was brought in to the project, lending a more accessible approach to the vocals. Grant previously spent time with bands such as Morpheus, New Eden, Cold October, and Ocean Seven, as well as having a professional background in theater, film, and touring musicals. He is currently the full time singer with Sentinel Steel Records recording artist ONWARD. The initial 4 songs (Leonelda, Sands of Time, To Hell Or To Heaven, and the epic Story) were recorded on 16 tracks; these were transferred and shipped from Colombia to California, where Michael Grant entered Disarray Studios (the studio of Horace Colmenares, of the band NEW EDEN) and tracked the English vocals.
Originally the 4 songs were to be an EP release, but all parties agreed that a full album would be better. Soon LEGEND MAKER entered the studio in Colombia once again and cut 3 new songs. Recorded on 24 tracks, the songs "Moon Seasons", "The Last Chapter", and "Labyrinth City" featured a slight change in sound, a maturation, if you will. Sentinel Steel Records chief Guibey deemed "Labyrinth City" too progressive and too much of a change from the previous material. Michael Grant added his vocals to "Moon Seasons" and "The Last Chapter", and after some rough mixes by Dissaray Studios producer Colmenares, the unmixed album was shipped to New Jersey, where producers Steve Evetts and Eric Rachel of Trax East Studios created the final mix.
Soon after the recording of the 3 new songs, LEGEND MAKER had a few band members leave, adding Fabian on Lead guitar, Julian on Bass and Juan Felipe on drums. Singer Diego Gomez was officially introduced as the band's new full time singer. All these new members along with original members Mauricio (Lead Guitar) and Luis Fernando (keyboards) are working hard preparing for their 2nd album and many live shows behind them.
Through The Mirror
Legend Maker Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
(Vocal melodies and vocal arrangements: Luis Carlos Ochoa, Diego Gomez)
In a world that's far beyond our visions, exists a land
Beyond the gates of the rising star
Where dreams are the reflections of what will be
Our journey through this space and time
Minds of perfection and sorrow are the fiends that await
Will we see the dawn?
Through the portal we must go on to cease the dark, revenge is now
(Chorus:)
Mirror of what time will be
In our fight for celestial peace
For all eternity
Some pain will soon return to haunt
But our souls will be ready to
Lead on the way
Winds of the darkest seasons, embrace us all
As the crimson fire ends all in sight
Non shall show mercy or pity
We shall go on to the end
The key to glory after the blood shed
Will soon be ours
See my hate come out
The curse they spread across the sky will disappear
as they die
(Chorus)
(Solo: Both. Solo: Mauricio. Solo: Santiago)
See my hate come out
The curse they spread across the sky will disappear, as they die
(Chorus)
The lyrics of Legend Maker's song Through the Mirror are a testament to the determination of the human spirit to conquer darkness and despair. The song is about a mythical land beyond our vision called the 'rising star' that exists beyond the gates, offering a glimpse of what will be. Dreams are the reflections of our deepest desires, and our journey through space and time depends on these dreams. But, in this realm of perfection and sorrow, darkness rules with no mercy for none. The only way to defeat it is to go on through the portal, to cease the darkness and seek revenge.
The chorus 'Mirror of what time will be' signifies that the journey is not about a physical battle, but an inner battle for celestial peace. It highlights the fact that one must be ready to face the pain that will soon return to haunt, but their souls will be ready to lead the way. The winds of the darker seasons embrace all, and the crimson fire destroys everything in sight. The key to glory, after the bloodshed, will soon be theirs. The curse that was spread across the sky will disappear as they die.
Ultimately, the song Through the Mirror inspires us to fight our inner demons and conquer our fears. It reminds us that despite the challenges we face, our determination and resilience will help us overcome the darkness.
