About

Book of Horizons is the fourth studio album by Secret Chiefs 3, released May 25, 2004. It was the first Secret Chiefs 3 album to reveal the satellite bands that form the actual band under their own name. Out of the seven bands only one, NT Fan, was not heard on the album at all. The other six are The Electromagnetic Azoth, UR, Ishraqiyun, Traditionalist, Holy Vehm and FORMS. Since the release of Book of Horizons the satellite bands have seen several releases of their own. "The Owl in Daylight" is inspired by the final, unfinished novel of the same name by renowned science fiction writer Philip K. Dick before his death. The song "Book T: Exodus" is the theme of the 1960 film The Exodus composed by Ernest Gold.
