Return
The most successful song of the 2nd decade was present on the music channels with expensive illustration, but also this single offers exclusive material:
The song “Indigo Man” is a composition by Alexander Veljanov that solely consists of recordings of his voice. Furthermore, the single contains a live recording of “My Decision”, and of course two versions of the title song that describes the return of a person full of doubts relating to the Odyssey by Homer.
Reviews
Aktiv Musikmagazin (translation from German)
Peppered with elaborate sound aesthetic, Ernst Horn (electronics) and Alexander Veljanov (vocals) combine subtlety, harmony, and timelessness in a way that sadness and the zest for live are well balanced. The irresistible melody of “Return” covers the comfortable ballade-darkness with a romantic flair and leads into a unique world of sound. MAXI TIP OF THE MONTH
onstage.de (translation from German)
The long expectation for a proof of live from a real existing band could hardly be surpassed in the case of Deine Lakaien. This band became a living legend. "Return" redeems those waiting. No one, who ever came to like this band, is going to be disappointed. This single is a pearl of fragile beauty. It is dominated by the well-known dark prevailing mood from which a deep melancholy enfolds on a solemn beat crying out yearningly.
