01. Friendship
So the story begins? Two friends. More precisely, this is what it used to be. That kind of friendship that begins in childhood and is strengthened through the years... Alan and Jason, Jason and Alan. No one could break them apart, from the early days of games to the recent times when they were both employed by a big Federation of industries. This is what we, under the influence of Milton's "Paradise Lost", Pascoli's "Il Fanciullino" and many others, think about friendship in the days of youth. Everything is going to change with the adult age.

02. The Project
The discovery.
All happened in a hurry, one day when Jason was a bit behind with his work and he decided to take home the remaining job. He put together all of his papers and quickly made his way out of the building. At home, Jason took out the papers and discovered that he had borrowed the wrong ones. Pushed by curiosity Jason tried to figure out something from those sheets, and he realized having come in possession of a secret project from the Federation. Its name was "Insider". Jason was shocked: it was about a genetic revolution. The Federation men probably built an artificial uterus, able to give birth to a human embryo with whatever wished chromosomal equipment! An entire genetic industry was hidden beyond Federation, whose only scope was to create a perfect machine that serves to its production purposes. Jason was firmly convinced to stop the plan, and who could he share this secret with, if not with his friend?

03. Temptation
Power and money always is tempting us.
In a moment of egoistic madness, Alan thought that maybe Federation's men could be interested in the documents fallen in Jason's hands... And maybe they would have paid for that piece of information... Maybe a lot...

04. Never Say Die
For this song Kingcrow recorded a videoclip last weekend, in a castle near Rome.
It's a song that talks about the last breaths of hope.
The day after discover, Jason calls Sharon Kirley, at Streets newspaper. After a few words, he entrusted the papers to the girl, who promised to help him with the journal.
At home Jason, frightened and hopeful at the same time, fell asleep on his desktop, deepened in his thoughts.

05. Eyes Of A Betrayer
The speedy/power song of the album, the only one maybe.
Alan was right. The Federation's men showed themselves very interested to his story, and, as he had foretold, they promised him power and all the money he desired if he had brought the papers back. So Alan's task was going to start...

06. Into The Cell
Just a sinister guitar to underline what happened: Alan didn't find anything, so Federation's men had to organize another trap for Jason. A murder was planned the same night, and Jason, confused by drugs that made him loose every cognition of what happened last night, was obviously blamed for that, and taken in jail. Destroyed by the guiltiness, Alan decided to go and say everything to his old friend...

07. Lies
The only one song also present in the EP, "Matzmariels".
It's destructive on stage. The content is the same as "Into The Cell".

08. The Killing Hand
The suite. Our proudness. What we think progressive has to be.
Federation's men were very disappointed. Jason could still speak, and Alan wasn't able to find the documents. In addition, Alan was a dangerous figure to manage, so unstable and uncertain...

09. Stardust
The first song to have been written for "Insider". Very loved by the fans.
At the trial, the prosecution requested a psychiatric examination for Jason, who was judged mentally insane and condemned to be interned in a lunatic asylum for the rest of his life...

10. Save Me
Mauro's favourite for its aor flavour.
So, what can Jason hope for his future? What can mankind do? Maybe someone still remains... But the question is: how long will it take for the system to destroy him or her...?

11. Finale
The end of the story... Surprise... You have to listen up to the last breath to undestand...
