Mariusz Duda, founder of Lunatic Soul is a hardworking musician. As soon as he finish a tour or recording session with Riverside he hides in a studio and start with something else. However, whereas other artists often ape their main band' releases, he decided to do something completely different than Riverside.

Lunatic Soul is an album whose main merit is atmosphere. The music flows slowly, sometimes springing into more lively theme. The concept and music itself are really good. The story of the protagonist is intriguing and suits the music very well.

There is one thing I don't like about that though. Monotony. It's almost everywhere (with an exception for Out on a Limb and Summerland) on the album and even if track evolve, there are no real turnabouts which usually make music more interesting. I'm not saying that it's boring or much less tiresome, it just would be more captivating if it was less predictable.

Lunatic Soul is good and dark-atmospheric collection of songs which attracts with nice melodies and genuine emotions. This album needs a special approach though to discover its full potential. It's good to put it into your player in the evening, lie down on the floor and savour the music.
