Around 4,800 years ago, mankind sputtered its first poems and epics through the cuneiform script of the Sumerians, in the cradle of lower Mesopotamia. Among these is the legend of Gilgamesh, king of Uruk, unjust and cruel. In this myth, Gilgamesh meets in the desert, Uta-Napishtim, a man who has already lived a thousand lives. This man, the Atrahasis, the very wise, the eternal, SunStare tells us his story, our story in Ziusudra.
"Ziusudra" (literally "Life with extended days" therefore "Immortal") is Noah's ark before it was plundered by other, more modern religions. The Gods, tired of humanity, its decadence, its incessant noise, took the decision to destroy it at all costs, in order to find peace. Epidemics, natural disasters, wars, famines... Human beings saw their era end in great entropy: fierce chaos. Only Uta-Napishtim survived on his ark, alone, for centuries.
This third album is a continuation of the other two, more balanced, more varied in terms of rhythms and musical approaches. Each sound pulse must hammer the listener, not leave him unscathed, or in any case, make him come out different from this experience. This album is to be considered as a monolith: each piece being interdependent of the others, because each tells a different part of this epic.
