Eric’s gift is really more of a burden, but there are some gifts that we do not have the power to refuse. Eric has been given the shining. By simply touching his hand to a face, a table, or any object, he is able to feel all of the emotions that surround it: he sees their past, their present and their future… it’s enough to drive a man mad. Mad because his gift works on everyone, and everything, except himself. He is a man without a past… nothing more than a vessel.In this unique album, Bartoli leads us through a maze of emotion and madness, alongside the beautifully protean artwork of Carnevale. As disturbing as it is brilliant!
