AUDIO
The Unholy Litanies
"The Unholy Litanies" begins with a locked jaw and ends with a hand on the latch, listening for the dead to answer. Dark, moody, and intensely intimate, the album gives sound to what the body knew before it could speak. Distorted bells, heavy bass, and low, breathy vocals draw the listener into its slowest passages, where repeated words gather force and silence starts to give way. Across the songs, desire, ritual, violence, and betrayal leave their traces in the mouth, on the skin, and throughout the rooms where they happened. Three wound interludes punctuate the record.
The Crow's Little Kingdom
A dark-fable concept album about devotion, control, waiting, hunger, and the strange places love can become distorted when two people keep changing roles inside the same wound. Across ten acts, Crow and Fawn move through a small kingdom of open gates, black wings, antlers, promises, distance, return, anger, and recognition. Neither is entirely innocent. Neither is entirely monstrous. The roles shift. The meanings change. The same images return carrying different weight.
Dead Pixels - Single
Somewhere between a corrupted signal and a restless ghost, something is still trying to break through. **Ghost in the Wire** is a bass-heavy collision of industrial grit, distorted electronics, and relentless drum and bass. Beneath the crunching rhythms and fractured digital noise lies something strangely human: a lingering presence searching for a connection that refuses to disappear. Dark, aggressive, and unapologetically wired, it's a little piece of beautiful electronic malfunction. **Some ghosts don't haunt houses. They haunt the mainframe.**
