This song contains Electric Guitar & Acoustic guitars, (both 6 string and 12 string variety). The music is infused with war siren keyboards, as well as arpeggio piano runs. It is in the style of an arabesque rock. The song is driven by insistent throbbing bass guitar riffs and all transported by dynamic drums by a rhythmic, tasteful and powerful drummer. This song evokes far away lands, ancient as well as modern times. It speaks of forbidden mystical love, the multitude of obstacles for its hero; it echoes the futility of wars and its location is in the deep desert among the sand dunes. It talks of the human condition and the ephemeral nature of human existence. It hints at recent wars, current wars and of battles yet to come. It talks of the cosmic evil that infects mans psyche and leads him in droves to his ultimate destruction. This song should definitely appeal to Indie rock music fans everywhere. Though this has mainstream appeal this song is unusual with its middle east rhythms and tones merged with western rock and pop music.

This is a song that has touches of the music of

Robert Plant , The Cult , Led Zeppelin ,

Peter Gabriel and Eric Serra .

During 2008 Velvet Razor went in to W.S.C studios in Bury St Edmunds located in Suffolk to lay down some new tracks in a great studio there. The tracks were “Victims of Love”, “The Shimmering sun” and “Dancing Fires” (this track was live debuted at Guilfest 2005). The sessions were recorded by the 'A' team (3 enthusiastic audio engineers (Nic, Smee, Steve all lead by Thom King). The studio engineers were impressed on how few takes it took to record the songs with perfect takes. This was the first time that Velvet Razor had produced themselves and the results were quite gratifying. The band stayed in a great Bed & Breakfast - The White Horse located in Risby, the landlord - John Madley was a great bloke and a fellow muso, so we all had a good chin wag.
