Concept album
The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway is a concept album . The story is about Rael, the protagonist from the New York scene . At one time he comes out of the subway as a thick cloud of black smoke slowly at Times Square descends. This wall of black smoke spreads on 42nd Street and Wall Street toward Manhattan . Rael as he is drawn into that wall of smoke climbed the stairs. When he wakes up he finds himself again under the ground ... in a perfect reconstruction of New York.

Here begins the surreal journey of Rael and his brother John.
