Was Better Before 02:10
lyrics
Silently walking down the streets where I once used to play Trying to avoid now all dark shadows Trying to make my way Nobody tells me if I gotta run Nobody guards my back Nobody tells me I might be wrong And that's awfully sad (Yeah...) I'll be back in a while I can handle this shit Love, I've done this before I just want to hang out a bit

Wrong Place, Wrong Time 03:42
lyrics
You're going nowhere I've got the knife Stay put don't move Guess you like your life Just come I said just come, I'll take you!

Unpleasantly Surprised 02:04
lyrics
No! What have you done to me! Is this my blood I can see?! What harm did I to you? To in this pain put me through I gave you all I have What else do you desire Got nothing left on me And you stand and watch me bleed (laughs) Don't want only these You give with some much ease So many things you have Need my eyes to brag? So what is your truth What are you afraid to lose I'll show you with this knife Don't wanna give your life

Last Regret 03:31
lyrics
Can see you in our wedding day Can feel your kiss and smile Can picture you in my arms While we go wild, to ever be Could carry them with just one hand Afraid that they would break And now they run to me With a big smile, and hug their dad And now's all wrong Won't be going home Going to leave you alone I fought and I just lost How could I be so weak I fell, will not get up And now things'll never be the same Again

Ignorance 02:31
lyrics
I'm waiting for someone to come We're going to a place I've never gone I don't know whom I'm waiting for I don't know where I'm going I'm hoping that this someone doesn't come I'm begging that he comes to go I don't know what I really want I'm just laying here Waiting For someone I don't know We're going To a place I don't know I know nothing I know nothing

about

Populism, Corruption and Crime have the power of destroying the lives of entire nations. The good life people had suddenly is turned into a living hell. And sometimes they do not want to believe it. The cities they once loved turn into cold, ruthless and awful creatures.
It is hard to foresee how an election might wreck a whole country, but more important is how that impacts on individuals. Extreme violence messes people up, it leads to misery and despair.

It is easy to think of this as an act of fiction, but reality is always darker and scarier. Those who have never faced it think of this as product of imagination, but this is the reality of millions of people all over the world.

Three Sides of a Tragedy is a rock opera inspired in the crime that spawns in a decaying city. This album, the first part, revolves around David, the physical victim of this tragedy.

David, a young man, father of two small kids, feels like hanging out with some friends. Work is over, kids are sleeping, so, like many times before, he heads out to enjoy some time with his friends and have a couple of beers.

His city has been decaying for some time now. Corruption, violence, political and economical breakdown are changing everything. To worse. But it is hard to accept that. David won’t accept it. His life used to be good.
Three Sides of a Tragedy tells the story when David meets with random crime on the streets of his cruel city. He gets killed over nothing. And the story is told from three points of view: the victim (David), the family and the murderer. It tells a tragic, and sadly common, story of loss in a city that has become the citizens worst enemy.

Man from the Box Gothenburg, Sweden

If you lived in Caracas in the late 90’s it is possible you heard his music when visiting the underground music scene, under a different name that is. A slow, dark and sometimes hard type of rock.
Moving through classic and progressive rock. Strange music, not everyone's cup of tea, but with a growing audience.
After a long 20 years retirement from music, he came back as Man from the Box. ... more
