Dear all BaL viewers, the first edition of “Bliss and Lunacy: Revisioned” has just released! BaL:R sticks to the same concept of BaL but adds a layer of accuracy, respect, and better quality. If you like this album, I guarantee you’ll like Bliss and Lunacy: Revisioned. Check it out on my channel!
Nice album! I could tell this was inspired by Milwaukee Protocol, mostly because of the album covers as well as some of the song names being portmanteaus in all caps. Speaking of song names, I love how “Qapiriq runa” and “Thoir dhomh rudeigin” still vaguely resemble English, even though they’re slowly deforming further in to full gibberish. Well done, Epos!
this is such a good freaking album. i hope this one day gets the recognition that it deserves, up there with Milwaukee protocol or vcjd, criminally underrated. good job man.
I've absolutely loved everything so far from listening the Side A and B track. It almost gives this feeling of nostalgia or dream-like sensation, I know very much that it's only going to get worse from here knowing how innocent and comforting the beginning tracks are.
i loved this album...i didnt understand the ending but thats okay...i really liked that bit of lore that this thing has also to the bastard that made B6 and made me crumble in tears...thanks for making my favourite early awareness track of all time
It might be worth noting that "lunacy" is an ableist term against people with bipolar disorder, especially since if you're trying to respectfully depict a disorder, it's ideal to not use ableist language (no shade intended, I promise; my phrasing is just bad sometimes) That being said, I'm really liking this so far
Sorry for the misunderstanding. I used the term "lunacy" originally as a term for the complete loss of sanity. Unfortunately, I can't change the name now. Thanks for the feedback though :-)
@@epos.nephiloIt is an obsolete term for insanity that was back then believed to be caused by the moon. It is not a slur for people with BPD, just an archaic term. Just ignore them, it's the same type of people who think the word "Christmas" is offensive. Your project is your project, you may name it w/e you want to.
I absolutely love this album Listening to I1 right now while writing this. Phases 1 - 2 were pretty fine, but when phase 3 hit. This suddenly became a masterpiece of an album. Have not gotten bored yet listening to this. Very entertaining album. My uncle was schizophrenic, now I'm wondering the absolute hell he went through. I've witnessed schizophrenia before with a brother in law i had. Truly devastating illness to witness. Can't wait for your next album. :)
Thank you so much! The first edition of my next album “How To Rule The Universe” is already released on my channel. I’m so glad to know you feel this way :)
Surprisingly...really good! Not a big fan on these types of samples but good job, I'd say next time use a sample that had more of a good morning feel to it
Genuinely a great album, came to this completely blind it just showed up in my watch next and played roblox while listening to it. SPOILER WARNING JUST IN CASE Part 3 really fucked me up it genuinely freaked me out to the point where I accidentally threw my headphones down. I loved the little bliss state in part 4. Bliss states don't really get me all happy but this one really did. Keep up the work this is amazing (I'm listening to G1 as I'm writing this.)
B2 - IS THAT SISYPHUS B3 - Reddit stories ahh music. D1 - AHH HELL NAW THATS BARRACKS SETTLEMENT FOR THE 2ND TIME D2 (Start) - THE SONG EVERYONE KNOWS BUT NO ONE KNOWS THE CREATOR AND THE FULL SONG D2 - Ah hell na radiator yo ass tweaking. D4 (Start) - wtf is going on. D5 - I’m Slely Moltin fuss Shule! E1 (Start) - do you need a pacifier. E2 - I’m beginning to dissipate E3 - Bro really is ascending, just in the wrong way. E4 - Halycl- Haclyclon? Halcycoon? Helacoaycon? I’m beginning to develp demnta. F1 - DARTH Vader Choke Force.
Question related to 04 - Judgement: Is the silence that ensues after the tracks ending supposed to be interpreted as the patient's death? I'm just a bit confused, since schizophrenic episodes usually don't lead to the death of the person. (Or, at least, that's what I've heard and seen.)
@@candlelight20 Aah, alright. I always keep forgetting that 'up to interpretation' exists. I always yearn for context, so I'm not shocked, lol. Thanks, man. :)
Nice fan project bro! Where can I get the audio files for BaL? (preferably FLAC, if not, WAV) Can't download the videos directly from here because your channel is an Official Artist Channel, which means your videos are copyright protected on safe-to-use YT video downloaders. Also, can I please have permission to upload the individual tracks?
I didn’t make any of these on things like FL Studio. I made them all on mobile, so there’s no files unfortunately. You have my full permission to re-upload these individual tracks though, as long as you credit me obviously.
Shizophrenia is a progressive degenerative disease that causes a desintegration of personhood. This album is a good reminder of its clinical reality in contrast to "voices" with their exaggerated importance in media.
@@noahplaysgames3748 "Degenerative" might be the controversial term for that matter (the biological nature of the disease is unproved), but denying the deteriorative course of schizophrenia is the same as denying 1,5 centuries of clinical studies. Symptoms of schizophrenia vary from slightest neurotiс issues to states of hallucinosis and catatonia, depending on the depth of damage caused to the human psyche. But, most importantly, these symptoms tend to replace each other, following inner logic of the disease and producing the effect of "progrediency", or progression, in other words.
1:09:12 This man has an illness that could change his life forever, he just doesn't know it yet. *Ben yes sfx followed by nonstop yapping about schizophrenia*
Personally because of the theme, BAL is more personal to me in a million ways MP isnt. But MP is higher quality and is a group effort. I'd still prefer this.
@@artinlivey the reason i commented “pifeigenboob” on your album is because my friend also has an album named reflection of agony and he sent your album to me

hope my version will do that too
1:32:08 - E3
How is this so good, when I listen to this, I am somehow scared shitless and euphoric at the same time. Just amazing.
This is amazing

As someone who made some things for this album, I’m pretty sure it’s just an up to interpretation thing, although I definitely don’t think it’s death
@@candlelight20 Aah, alright. I always keep forgetting that 'up to interpretation' exists. I always yearn for context, so I'm not shocked, lol. Thanks, man. :)
04 is meant to represent the character ascending to the next plane of reality.
@@epos.nephilo Damn, that's quite interesting. Thanks. :)
@@epos.nephiloSo, no matter what actually happened in real life (death/being cured/something else) the patient is now free, and that's what matters.
