About this product

Thief have already gained cult status among the initiated, which might be taken quite literally considering that the backbone of their sound has been formed by manipulated sacred chant and choral samples. Although the project of American multi-instrumentalist Dylan Neal from Los Angeles, California continues along this path, his third album InchThe 16 Deaths of My MasterInch surprises with a much heavier use of original instrumentation such as strings, organ, harpsichord, bass, guitar, and other hardware synths. InchThe 16 Deaths of My MasterInch is more accessible, aggressive, and straightforward in comparison to it's two predecessors. Lyrically, InchThe 16 Deaths of My MasterInch is heavily drawing from dreams and a generally more personal approach including topics such as rebellion, grief, addiction, mysticism, and spiritual horror. Dylan lives at a Zen Buddhist temple along with Thief live bassist Chris Hackman, where both participate in residential training. The mastermind recorded and mixed most of the album in his apartment. The other 10% were conceived in a cabin in the woods to which Dylan had hauled all of his gear into. The sparkling, crisp sound of the album might contradict it's Inchhome recordingInch history, but Dylan recruited literally a master of his trade for the mastering process in the person of John Greenham at Clearlight Mastering, Los Angeles, CA. John has collaborated with artists ranging from THE LOCUSTS via KATY PERRY and MARY J BLIGE to receiving three Grammy Awards in 2019 honouring his contributions for BILLIE EILISH. Dylan Neal first made himself a name as a musician by playing hammered dulcimer in San Francisco-based experimental black metal outfit BOTANIST from whom he recruited Thief live-drummer Robert Chiang. Eager to explore his own way, Dylan released InchThieves Hymn in D MinorInch (2016) and InchMap of Lost KeysInch (2019) under

Thief - Map Of Lost Keys   - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Thief is the brainchild of Dylan Neal, a dulcimer player for the critically acclaimed experimental black metal band Botanist. During his time with Botanist, Neal began to experiment with a new sound. Deeply inspired by sacred Christian vocal music, Gregorian chants and the limitlessness of electronic music, he began to connect the dots between the new and ancient; the past and sonic expressions of the future. This involved crate digging for strange medieval hymns and melding them with electronic and black metal elements. The lyrics are heavily inspired by traditional Christian dirges and hymns, but they take on their own life in Thief's rendering. While their first album, InchThieves Hymns In D MinorInch (2016), was more of an exploration of textures and mood, the band's sophomore album and Prophecy Productions debut, InchMap Of Lost KeysInch, is a bombastic, expansive, and at times aggressive development on their earlier sounds. It's an extension of the band's drive to progress, also tapping into the mystical world of the Russian and Eastern Orthodox Church. It's an exquisite blend of electronica, classical hymns and alternative rock which comes together to create a unique sound - sometimes upbeat and quick paced, sometimes slower and textured. InchMap Of Lost KeysInch is out via Prophecy Productions on LP, CD Digipak and digital platforms on July 26th, 2019. Album Tracks 1. Vespers 2. Frost Breath 3. Pyromancy 4. Desert Djinn 5. Holy Regicide 6. With Love, from Nihil 7. Unsafe 8. Gouging Out a Cave in Empty Sky 9. Without a Master 10. Spirit Box 11. Spirit Archery
