More information: 'The Purpose Paradox' is a concept album, and features 9 brand new tracks ranging in length from 4 to nearly 16 minutes.

The sound showcases a broader side of DILEMMA - louder, faster, more technical, more progressive. With new frontman Jermain van der Bogt (Wudstik) replacing Dec Burke, the vocals have become rawer and more varied. Almost six years after the previous record 'Random Acts Of Liberation' the band sounds reborn. Like its predecessor, 'The Purpose Paradox' was produced by drummer Collin Leijenaar, who, together with the famed music wizard Rich Mouser (The Mouse House, LA), was also responsible for the mix and mastering. Thanks to their matched ears, the result is an audio experience that DILEMMA has worked on with great pride over the past years.

The story revolves around a man named Neon. Someone like us in the here and now. During his quest for connection and fulfilment, he finds support from an unconventional guide named Electra. She points out to him that sometimes the things we look for are the things that found us first. Will Neon's heart glow again when he discovers the outer light? Or does the greed of the corporate machine known as The Hand succeed in extinguishing his inner fire? Can Neon's secrets be deleted? And will he, in the end, arrive in the comfort zone of allies in the raw, rainy city he once left behind?
