- We've Been Dead Before -
We have been dead before... before we were born. This album by the band El Ego (Spain) talks about the afterlife in different beliefs as an excuse to deal with much more mundane issues such as guilt or the passage of time. The Divine Comedy, 19th-century spiritualism, the houris, Shiva Nataraja, the Egyptian book of the dead, the five rivers of Hades, the Viking Valhalla... all mixed in this complex work full of symbols and allegories.
