Cosmic Cenotaph, produced by Russ Russell and Simon White and released via Inner Hell Records, contains a dark yet cathartic listening experience. From the incomprehensible, imagining of the end of time and space, to explorations turned inward, to the human psyche, Cosmic Cenotaph offers intensity and intrigue. Cosmic Cenotaph will be released on vinyl on October 18th, 2024 and can be pre-ordered HERE.
Simon White explains the concept behind the album: “Conceptually, when I first started thinking about this album, in a cliched sort of way I thought of it like a triptych similar to Bosch’s ‘The Garden of Earthly Delights’. Each panel being a collection of ideas to draw inspiration from for the lyrics.
I abstracted this idea into a circular hierarchy starting at a single point on earth with an individual, then increasing the radius of the circle to include the planet, nearby planets, and alien life. Then lastly to increase the radius of the circle to include the universe and the outer edges of spacetime that decay/breakdown into chaos.”
