About this product

Mizmor, is a one-man heavy music exploration that began in 2012 as a way of dealing with the mental and spiritual anguish mastermind A.L.N. feels as a person. More specifically, the content behind the project is that of the existential / primal and innate musings about cause, purpose, and self. It is the search for light and truth, or the fact that there is none. It comes from an embittered, burned, confused, and broken heart. It is the fight for survival when reason and foundation has turned to nothingness. It is the crashing down of towers of falsehood and the freedom that comes through a certain kind of grief. Ultimately, Mizmor is the manifestation of a long-felt depression which doesn't have an end in sight.In A.L.N.'s own words behind the new Mizmor album Prosaic InchThe idea behind Prosaic was to make an intentionally less conceptual, more slice-of-life record. I wanted to make an album that was less precious and obsessed-over, more honest and real; less grandiose and more human. I found it an interesting challenge to find the line between 'you can do better' and 'you're beating a dead horse.' I tried to make my process more efficient and even fun at times. I simply wanted to share, but if that meant exacting all-out perfectionism, I wasn't going to make a record. Right now I'm interested in making less self-indulgent music. The themes are the absurdity / futility / purpose / meaning of work, mindfulness / consciousness / living in the present moment / shedding illusions, depression / acceptance / contentment. This is the first Mizmor album without any content relating to god / atheism. You also won't hear any shrieks.Inch

Mizmor / Hell - Alluvion   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

The stories of Mizmor and Hell are, for all intents and purposes, inextricably intertwined. For twenty years A.L.N. (Mizmor) and M.S.W. (Hell) have been orbiting the same fertile creative circles in the Pacific Northwest. They've done stints as live/touring members for each other's solo endeavors and they've contributed their distinctive voices to each other's recordings. A.L.N. and M.S.W. even aligned their cathartic outlets for a now impossible to find Mizmor/Hell split, unleashed upon the world in 2014. A collaboration record like Alluvion feels as if it was always predestined.The blueprint for Alluvion had been drafted long ago and it wallowed in obscurity, it's memory swirling in the ether, patiently waiting for a rogue spark to manifest it's existence. And, as luck would have it, when A.L.N. and M.S.W. once again found themselves in the midst of each other's boundless creative universes, they were now prepared to undertake the monumental task.A.L.N. and M.S.W. intend for the compositions on Alluvion to be used as a map to help navigate the listener through bouts of psychic distress, touching upon emotions both terribly familiar and wholly extrinsic. Pensive, tranquil movements combust into passages of absolutely soul-searing sludge. Suffocating, blackened doom bursts out of unknown crevasses; punctuated by the unsettling voices of beings doing their damnedest to claw their way out of canyons carved by mental anguish. It's a harrowing journey, but one that seeks to provide a necessary catharsis. Alluvion is meant to act as a lens into the mind's seemingly mystifying geography; a vessel for the self-exploration of the complex terrains of the human psyche.

Khemmis - Khemmis   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

After eleven years of releasing albums and touring the world, Khemmis' 5th full length record is a dense, blood-infused honey for the ear. A grand spiritual celebration of heavy metal, a concept album framed as a ritual of musical freedom that starts with the pounding rhythms of InchInvocation of the DreamerInch and culminates with the starlit exaltation of InchBenediction Tones.Inch
