Album Notes & Community Reviews

Comprised of a massive, continuous suite broken across two sides, this intensely dark concept album is entirely narrated through the brooding spoken-word poetry of Paolo Carelli. The abrasive, highly experimental backing music oscillates wildly between menacing acid-rock freakouts and foreboding symphonic passages, creating a profoundly unsettling listening experience.
