Description/Reviews
With "THE?LIE", ssttgd are once again proving that they are among the most innovative and creative bands in the genre - and in George Andrade, the band was able to convince and win over a lyricist for the concept, who developed a compelling lyricbook, with stirring and disturbing lyrics, out of Thoralf Koss' story. To match the intriguing storyline, some outstanding members of the progrock scene were ensembled to take on the roles of the characters and to perform the instrumental parts.
