An undeniable filmic quality, its soothing post-rock passages crashing heroically into jagged guitars, waves of discordant synths and - eat your heart out, James Horner. - a full freakin’ choir, deployed perfectly. But “cinematic” just doesn’t do “The Chandelier Suite” justice, because movie music rarely rocks this hard. If you wish Danny Elfman had larger balls, Hour of the Shipwreck is for you.
Composition and lyrics by Richie Kohan. Arrangement by Hour of The Shipwreck.

In the film "Close Encounters of The Third Kind", Roy is driven beyond rationality by an unexplainable and profound artistic and life inspiration. This inspiration was so great, he was willing to let his life fall apart to follow it. In the end he discovered there was meaning to his inspiration, there was a reason for his search. He was invited by those of the third kind and he met what they asked of him. The Chandelier Suite is about the struggle of inspiration and being rescued by discovering that you were meant to meet that struggle and find where it led.

The Chandelier Suite
When will the sky open
The ship come rescue me
Pull me out from where I don’t belong
When will the Chandelier Sing:
Ooh
The rest won’t understand their song:
Ooh
Ah
So the spell me be broken, let go
Let go
When will the sky open
The ship come rescue me
Pull me out from where I don’t belong
I’ve lost my way
It’s gonna break me
I’ve lost my way
When will the sky open
The ship come rescue me
Pull me out from where I don’t belong
