Only the mastering was left to Patrick W. Engels competent hands.<br><br>The songs are thematically linked, without it being a classic concept work. The lyrics \u2013 which, as on \"Tales of the Weird\" (2012) and \"Pangea\" (2016), were written by Achim \"Dax\" H\u00f6merlein (ex-Vendetta) \u2013 revolve around mystical stories and world events that have personally moved Steinhauer. Songs like \"Abyss of Pain and Fear\" (inspired by the movie \"Midnight Express\"), the instrumental \"Grief\" (a tribute to co-founder Axel Blaha, who died in 2023) or the title track (about dream interpretation) thus form a common thread.<br><br>In Steinhauer\u2019s own estimation, \"Mysterium\" is alongside their 1989 classic \u201cHeresy\u201d the strongest PARADOX album to date! \"The songs all have their own identity, are catchy, and when the album is over, I want to listen to it again straight away.\u201d<br><br>Charly`s focus remains on studio productions.
