Ждал этого альбома с нетерпением. С тех самых пор, когда появилось первое творение Warmen, группы созданной клавишником – виртуозом Janne Warman’ом из финской блек группы Children of Bodom. Не знаю уж какие там отношения в группе, но вполне очевидно, что Alexi Laiho – лидер COB – творить молодому кнопкодаву Janne не даёт. Результат – появ-ление новой самобытной группы. Было ясно уже по первому альбому, что Janne Warman если и не создал новый стиль, то, по крайней мере, музыка группы не будет похожа ни на что ра-нее существовавшее. По сути, стиль Warmen можно охарактеризовать как инструментальный рок с наличием очень мягких и приятных клавишных.
Второй альбом, Beyond Abilities, полностью подтвердил ранее сказанное и оправдал ожидания. В его состав вошло одиннадцать песен, музыка для которых была написана War-man’ом в соавторстве с басистом группы L. Porra и гитаристом A. Warman’ом. При просмотре буклета сразу бросается в глаза увеличение количества песен с вокалом. На первом альбоме, Unknown Soldier, их было всего две, теперь же аж пять. При этом две песни спела Kimberly Goss, замеченная в сотрудничестве с Janne на первом альбоме, другие две – (барабанная дробь) Timo Kotipelto, солист Stratovarius, последнюю – некий P. Nykanen.
Остальные шесть песен - чистые инструменталки. |

Второй сольник Вирмена оправдал свои ожидания - такой же качественный и красивый, как первый. Единственным минусом, на мой взгляд, является большое количество песен. Все-таки прелесть Unknown soldier'а была именно в интрументальности, а тут похоже просто на сборник разных финских запевал. Продолжение саги о Сальери не получилось, а вот темы War Of Worlds и Finale на редкость красивы. Из песен интересны Spark с Главным Стратовариусом и Alone с Незабвенной Кимберли. Хороший альбом для релаксации после брутальности. :) |

I will search all night long
Even though I need to wonder in the dark
I know I have to finish this song
The day is over the paper's empty
I have to ask advice from Mr. Beer
He shows me some of his visions
And suddenly everything is so clear
Once again I need to find the spark
I will search all night long
Even though I need to wonder in the dark
I know I have to finish this song
Once again I need to find the spark
I will search all night long
Even though I need to wonder in the dark
I know I have to finish this song

3. Hidden
She's running scared doesn't dare to confess her sins
So unaware of the danger that she is in
moved on ahead, never tried turning back for you
She ignores all the signs, head faced to the ground
Catching up for the kill, waste no time
Every day she tried to stray towards the evil within her, yeah
The darkness feeds on her greed and it's taking the form of her insanity
Losing control takes a toll on goodness within her, yeah
Forget the past gone at last and look to the extinction of humanity
As time goes by she must lie to protect her name
The enemy chose to see this is just a game
Fatal mistake now they pray as they beg for mercy
She ignores all the signs, head faced to the ground
Catching up for the kill, waste no time
Every day she tried to stray towards the evil within her, yeah
The darkness feeds on her greed and it's taking the form of her insanity
Losing control takes a toll on goodness within her, yeah
Forget the past gone at last and look to the extinction of humanity
Every day she tried to stray towards the evil within her, yeah
The darkness feeds on her greed and it's taking the form of her insanity
Losing control takes a toll on goodness within her, yeah
Forget the past gone at last and look to the extinction of humanity

5. Dawn
You think your life is gone.
There is no reason to be.
Thinking all the time that same thing:
"What am I doing here?"
Stop thinking like that!
Get yourself together
Or I shall kick that shit out of you!
It's easy for you to say!
You don't know what I am dealing with.
I have tried "nostrums" and shrinks
"No effect for me."
I am too tired for this normal bullshit.
Just leave me alone!
May you live to see the dawn?
A new day will come, you'll be reborn.
Oh! What a loser!
What has happened to you?
You are not the same person I used to know!
Motherfucker!
Let those nightmares go and
give yourself a second chance
because you deserve it!
May you live to see the dawn?
A new day will come, you'll be reborn.
You search for your destiny from a crystal ball...
You will find your path, when your time has come...
May you live to see the dawn?
A new day will come, you'll be reborn.
May you live to see the dawn?
A new day will come, you'll be reborn.

6. Singer's Chance
Waking up into reality
Fading away from a dream
A shelter for me
Listening to the voices through the wall
Trying to figure out the place
Where I am though I've seen them all
Remembering yesterday
How we pulled it off again
And later hit the highway
As I take the stage I realize
That my life has meaning
Here I am
I have to sing it out
The feelings I had have inside
for so many years
Here is my chance
I have to take it
Reaching out to the people
Who have come to see the show
I see the hands in the air
Feeling the energy
That we share
When the day is done
And I'm on my own
I feel tired and satisfied
Here I am
I have to sing it out
The feelings I had have inside
for so many years
Here is my chance
I have to take it
Reaching out to the people
Who have come to see the show
I see the hands in the air
Feeling the energy
That we share
When the day is done
And I'm on my own
I feel tired and satisfied
Here I am
I have to sing it out
The feelings I had have inside
for so many years
Here is my chance
I have to take it
Reaching out to the people
Who have come to see the show
7. Alone
[Originally performed by Heart]
I hear the ticking of the clock
I'm lying here, the room's pitch dark
I wonder where you are tonight
no answer on the telephone
and the night goes by so very slow
oh, I hope that it won't end though
Alone
Till now I always got by on my own
I never really cared until I met you
and now it chills me to the bone
how do I get you alone
how do I get you alone
You don't know how long I have wanted
to touch your lips and hold you tight
oh, you don't know how long I have waited
and I was going to tell you tonight
but the secret is still my own
and my love for you is still unknown
Alone
Till now I always got by on my own
I never really cared until I met you
and now it chills me to the bone
how do I get you alone
how do I get you alone
Alone...
How do I get you alone
how do I get you alone
Alone...
Alone...
