A young man leaves in search of his grandfather, a pilot who disappeared while flying over an island.

The young man is terrified of the trial that awaits him, but will not give in to the idea that his grandfather might possibly be dead. He presses on, into the forest. To the danger that waits ahead of him, he says aloud, "You can make your threats and laugh at me, but I am not afraid of you."

After a full day of wandering through the forest and around the island, the young man becomes angry with his grandfather for being so stupid as to fly alone over an island so far away and disappear.

Running low on supplies, the young man begins to beg his deity to help him search for his grandfather, or to send him a sign to tell him whether or not his grandfather is even alive.

Having run out of supplies, and surviving on rainwater and flora, eventually the young man tires, and gives up all hope. In tears, exhausted and weak, he collapses and passes out. Near death, he awakens to a group of specters, four of them, who guide him across the island to the place where his grandfather's plane crashed.

Pangaea Willmar, Minnesota
Hi, my name is Anton.
This is my music project Pangaea.
I've been
working on it since 2006, when I was 16.
I write all the songs, I play all the instruments, and I do all the recording/editing.
If you have the time, I'd appreciate you giving it a listen.
Thank you.

Pangaea recommends:
Transparencies
by Kevin Hufnagel
With complex and heavy modification, and mind-tumbling riffs, this album is both aesthetically calming and melodically haunting. Check out his albums, "Polar Night" and "Ashland" as well.

What Can & Can't Go On
by The Hosemobile
Has plenty of disgustingly beautiful riffs, ranging from hard and fast, to gentle and calm, like a seagull on a breeze. A badass seagull that eats cigarettes and poops on old ladies (on purpose).

The Backbone of Night
by Del Rey
Not a single album put out by these Chicago-based musicians disappoints. The members switch instruments mid-song, and deliver riff-tastic tunes. Highly recommend anything you can find by them.
