Jim Dinan also records under the name Beyond the Eyes of Men. Beyond the Eyes of Men's sound is best described as minimal with dark introspective vocals and haunting dissonance wrapped in the sonic texture of post punk, acoustic and ambient music. Lyrically, there are myriad experiences pushing and pulling in continuous conflict with desire. Members: James Dinan - Guitar, Bass & Vox -various guest musicians

Story behind the song
A song about the tower of babel.
BEYOND THE EYES OF MEN: Unlock the Mirror
Lyrics
Underneath the sun We raise Our Monument Our fame Traced in blood Our name As the mystic one Rebukes our fame We look like men Born of shame Now we speak in tongues No will to pray Forgotten son We reign Underneath the sun We raise An Idol hand In vein Falls like sand Our pain As the mystic one rebukes our fame Native son We reign Reach for the sun With mud and clay Confuse our tongues No will to pray Traced in blood Our forgotten name Forgotten sons Forgotten name

Very cool and trippy intro. I like the motion synth and the hard hitting trance like beat. Very cool sound. Although, the song just suddenly ends. Sounded like it got cut off. I liked what I heard of it! My internet is pretty shotty, I will come back and try again.
