Lilitu is influenced by and pay homage to the following: Ulver, Arckanum, Dodheimsgard, Wolves in the Throne Room, Drudkh, Azrael, Satyricon, The Moon Lay Hidden Beneath A Cloud, Tenhi, Orplid, Nargaroth, Burzum, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Fire + Ice, Soft Machine, Comus, Earth, Naervaer, Dornenreich, Nature & Organisation, Naglfar, Enslaved, Novy Svet, Les Joyaux De La Princesse,
Swans, John Fahey, In Gowan Ring, Deathspell Omega
Within a music scene inundated by stagnation, fashion worship, and cookie-cutter clones, Lilitu achieves something rarely accomplished; turning real life into art. Their music literally pulses with the full, unabridged lexicon of human emotion and expression, which is delivered as a solid and focused force that alternately pulls the heartstrings and crushes the sternum. Snubbing stereotypes and standing in defiance of clichés, Atlanta's Lilitu has made the worldwide buzz that is growing about their music undeniable. Never pretentious, never conformist, never holding back.
Formed in 1996 by enigmatic front man Henry Derek Bonner, Lilitu's music has always represented pure emotional expression. The 1999 release of The Earth Gods, found Lilitu examining the struggles of existence and the evolution of the human condition. With 2001s release of Memorial, the band delved into the realms of tragedy and solitude. Released worldwide in September of 2004 on The End Records, The Delores Lesion has received remarkably positive press throughout the world, garnering top ratings in magazines and online reviews alike. Weaving a story of exploitation and betrayal with deft and richly harmonic riffs, compelling melodies, and lyrics of truth, tragedy, and passion, The Delores Lesion leads the listener through the depths of adversity that brought it to fruition.
Like life itself, Lilitu's story plays out on the stage... a place they are no stranger to, having shared many with the likes of , In Flames, Arch Enemy, Cradle of Filth, Opeth, Trivium, Lacuna Coil, Death by Stereo, The Kovenant, Nevermore and many more. On the live front the band completed the 5 week International Extreme Metal Festival 2005 Tour which brought them to stages across the U.S. and Canada all through September and in to October with bill-mates God Dethroned, Nightrage, Manntis, Hell Within, Thine Eyes Bleed, Epoch Of Unlight, Atrocity, and Leaves Eyes among others. New Lilitu fans were born each night, won over by the groups powerful performances, showmanship, and ability to move listeners in ways only the genuine article can accomplish.
The future will bring new exciting things for Lilitu. One being a triumphant return to
the forefront of the metal genre, re-establishing their role as an elite tour de force. Having already maintaining cult status, the band is working on a new album which will re-define and expand the band's original sound. Combining
elements of traditional European folk, neo-classical, progressive rock, experimental-avant garde and old-school black metal, the primary influence for the upcoming gem stems from the Romanian philosopher, E. M. Cioran. The album is tentatively titled, "Directions For Decomposition: Variations On Death" and will be completed by
Summer 2008.

Lilitu's enchanting, heavily melancholic sound is lush and deeply moody. Their command of rich harmony and sweeping, expressive dynamics is amazing. - Terrorizer
Lilitu doesnt rest on one style very long, rather they embrace the challenge of creating music with passion and intellect, adding fragments of styles to the music, as if the were painters adding colors to a canvas as the music goes along. - Unrestrained

Hello how are you? I just wanted to let you know that I have just finished producing a yoga, meditation & relaxation album titled “Surrender of The Mind”
Surrender of The Mind is written for those of us who need to get away. Maybe we have had a tough day at work. Maybe we have studied hard. Maybe we need to reflect on certain events in our lives. Maybe we just need a moment to clear our minds and re-set our mental strength. No matter what the reason is, there comes a time when we all need to surrender our minds.
This album takes you on a musical journey like no other. Capturing the ancient sounds of panpipes, tabla, bells, sitar and many other ambient resonances for those who wish to achieve a higher state of consciousness, greater focus and self-awareness through yoga & meditation, or simply to accomplish a more relaxed and peaceful state of mind.
Please come on my profile and listen to the album, I am sure it will take you away from the mad world we are living in at the moment.
Let me know what you think of it, I look forward to your reply.
The full version of Surrender of The Mind is available on all download sites including iTunes and Amazon.
