Close

The album was released on 25 October 2010 by both Mystic Production and Kscope,^[2] debuting at No. 13 on the OLiS chart in Poland.^[3][4] Reviewers compared the music to such artists as Dead Can Dance and Peter Gabriel.^[5]

Music critics pointed out that Lunatic Soul II is more musically accessible than the debut and includes more melodic content. They placed emphasis on Duda's continued experimentation, expressed through the use of unconventional instruments, such as the Chinese guzheng, tubular bells, the cajón, and the kalimba.^[5][6]

In terms of lyrics, while the Lunatic Soul's debut was a “black” album symbolizing the passage to the realm of death, the second album was planned as “white,” meant to represent the transition to the side of life. ^[7]
