about

Corroded iron dragged through the open wounds of the earth,

Saturn in arms before the Narrow Gate.

Seven blades through the heart of the imperial corpse,

Seven songs for seven dead kings,

Offered upon the altar of Attic Shrines.

Militant Melancholia is martial industrial tinged dungeon synth, dragged through the wounds of the earth in the accustomed manner of Attic Shrines. Seven songs composed, under a cloud of apocalyptic pessimism, between 2021 and 2023; the last years of the empire.

Originally released on cassette by Attic Shrines.

There's nothing you've said we don't despise
There's nothing you've built we can't destroy.

Hermit Knight is always a special adventure, between emotions of joy and pain, of a sensitive intensity. Listening to this opus reminds me of those little companions that I loved so much. They are forever in my heart. Forever 🖤 𝕽𝖔𝖓𝖓𝖎𝖊 𝕿𝖍𝖊 𝕳𝖔𝖗𝖓𝖊𝖉
