Æthereal Arthropod

Æthereal Arthropod was born with a compositional intent based on controlled improvisation inspired by the natural sciences. A way of discovering new musical methods through the observation of parallelisms of mechanical and biological structures. insect spawn delight on carved flesh reborn of;

Paralel crust collide overlapped dissolution, the noble thrust shattered its helicoidal sword, ignominous will ov the archon realm devour-revolting merciful evisceration, thy be consumed alas gaseous black mass enhance the array ov extinction.

spilled be the blood ov the stars, coated cosmos infusion their deathsign, reptiles. gravitational poison, ritual horizon, shadows. echo location, sonic weapons disseration. shrine ov auspicious cast thunder mantle shrieking angels and demons, the flame of the dragon, elementals of metal and plastic pleased be to swallow this soil, crushed in bone with thunders, cast upon & destroy.

As the vacuity of ethos recalls on the ambiguity of space, the antithesis of duality corrodes itself in search of the absolute meaning, the separation of in-between from within, as a hyper-destructive force of catharsis suited for blasphemous triggering to the unknown terror of the abyss.
