Ophelia’s
Eye previously known as Project Penny and later on Red Fire Dragon. As
both names occured to be to generic and not fitting the band’s music the
band decided to change the name to Ophelia’s Eye based on the novel
“The Sandman” from E. T. A. Hoffmann. The story is about the traumatic
childhood experience of the student Nathanael which makes its way to the
surface through the surprising encounter with the weather glass dealer
Coppola. He believes he recognizes the devilish lawyer Coppelius, who is
responsible for his father's death. When the beautiful but quite
Olimpia captivates him, he loses himself more and more between delusion
and reality. To make the name sound rounder, Olimpia is called Ophelia
in the band name. Through our songs the listeners should also lose the
connection to reality - at least for a while.
