On the ideas in debut album:...the concept for Darkrealm was a modern heavy sound, but without vocals, instead incorporating some soundscape elements to enhance the instrumentation. I wanted tracks that eschewed the traditional verse/chorus structure, and instead wander through different loosely connected sections, leading the listener on a voyage that leaves their imagination in charge.
It's definitely an idea that I've thought about a lot - the idea of deep time and the unimaginable, unknowable events that have led us to today. The tempest is us. We inherited a garden planet at the dawn of man. Hopefully we can reach for the stars and then heal the wounds of Mother Earth.
