We live in a world where stupidity trumps intellect, herd mentality trumps non-conformity, greed trumps benevolence, malice trumps innocence, condemnation trumps gratitude, animosity trumps compassion and ignorance trumps wisdom. So, how do we survive in such a world where humanity has become an alien concept? How do we deal with this world on a personal level? How do we find happiness and satisfaction in such a world? It’s quite simple, actually. You find a profound sense of beauty of the universe and become aware of the sad beauty of human suffering while developing a mind of your own.
“Reliqua Mentis” (a Latin phrase which means ‘The Rest of’) is an album that highlights a person’s path towards developing a mind of his own while engulfing himself in a profound sense of awareness about the universe. Through sounds depicting emotions, the album tries to portray a concept that it is always you against the rest of the world and how you deal with this revelation is completely up to you.
