Finally getting to listen to this. Grats on getting it up on Spotify btw. I can stream the hell out of this. I'm currently on The Rot. LOVE the arpeggiating synth against those guitars. Your production is spot on as far as I can hear in these first few tracks.
I'm curious if you had any visuals in mind while writing this? It feels very much like a soundtrack to something. As another noted earlier, it is very organic. I really need to hear this over video now. It just begs to be used.

Well, I generally have a vague story in my head when making an album. I didn't go as far as writing a companion for this one, but I imagined a nightly, dusty, flame-lit, red, old western village with remnants of a stone age history and cultish townsfolk. Therein they bury certain citizens & fortunes with deceased masters as tribute (akin to real Sumerian death pits). The sun eventually rises to end on a brighter note, but I honestly couldn't figure out what the brighter note should be. Though I had a vague picture of a man on horseback riding away from the town & all of its associated gloom; I felt this as a metaphor for finally turning one's back on soul-sucking externalities or longstanding toxic influences. Am I getting too pretentious yet?
I'd love to have better visual accompaniment, but I've tried, and filmmaking/video editing is just not my thing.
