Putting classical theme in melody to the simple heartbeat rhythms of hardcore music or black metal, this sparse release uses only electronic instruments and percussion to unveil growth within repeated but evolving conceptual poetries of sound. Based around the mythos of Ragnarok through the loss of faith and individual arrogance, this work uses sweeping harmonization to shape of theme as a weapon which draws the listener into a vortex of sound. Although it is not the easiest album to understand, once appreciated this grows on the listener as its motifs develop like independent tidal pools creating new types of the same life forms in isolation.
