This record is a fiction. The songs were generated with AI; the artist, the label and the words were invented. What is Sidetrax?
Sleeve notes
Worlds Away: The Vesterlund Recordings
Six songs were chosen for this introduction, not because they summarize Afterlight, but because each makes a different part of the band's case without apology.
“Turn the Night Around” opens the doors. “Heart on the Line” puts romantic nerve inside a guitar riff. “Run Through the Fire” is the five-piece at full physical speed. “The Distance Between Us” lets the room go quiet before the walls arrive. “Forever Is a Long Way Home” belongs to everyone who ever sang it back. “Worlds Away” gathers the record's distance, devotion and twin-guitar language into one last horizon.
These are not museum pieces and they are not reconstructions. They are the songs Afterlight chose when the world finally asked who they were.
