They put his soul inside Rasputin's body. Rasputin goes to usurp the czar and he is murdered. The two souls fly out of Rasputin's body through the crack in the sky e and Rasputin is the wise man that is trying to lead the child home to his body because his parents have discovered him by now and think that he is dead.
Rasputin needs to get him back into his body before it's too late. But they end up running into the Devil along the way and the Devil tries to steal their souls and bring them down…there are some obstacles along the way. Dailor has also said that 'Crack the Skye' is meant as an homage to his sister, Skye Dailor, who committed suicide at age My sister passed away when I was a teenager and it was awful, and there's no better way to pay tribute to a lost loved one than having an opportunity to be in a group with my friends and we make art together.
Her name was Skye, so Crack the Skye means a lot of different things. Dog City followed in , and Crack the Sky infrequently reunited throughout the decade to come. The astonishing success of Crack the Sky's eponymous first album raised expectations that the band was never able to fulfill for the rest of their career.
Critics and audiences alike delighted in the wry, intelligent lyrics, complex and powerful progressive rock, and carefully crafted harmonies. Radio programmers were more ambivalent.
Songs like "Ice," "She's a Dancer," and "Surf City" all got nationwide airplay, though none actually became a real hit. All of them deserved more attention, but the label never focused their promotional efforts on any one of them, and as a result there was no hit single.
Thus the band are boldly declaring that this is their best work yet, that this is the culmination of their history, the point at which everything comes together. Contrasting the two black holes against each other, we can see that the central one is black, whilst the smaller symbol above is in gold, suggesting that the heaviness of their previous albums, whilst not disappearing, is slowly making way for some lighter, more melodic and more progressive material.
When looking at the symbol as a whole, both the black hole and the symbols immediately adjacent to it form the outline of a trident. That the central prong of the trident has been replaced by a back hole merely emphasises the loss Brann must have experienced, a void almost impossible to fill even with professional help. I t takes a special band to do a prog metal concept album with dignity, but Atlanta's Mastodon are genre masters. Their breakthrough Leviathan was steeped in imagery from Herman Melville's Moby Dick, while 's Blood Mountain was littered with mythological creatures.
