Psyclopean - Into A New Dark Age
Into A New Dark Age is the 22nd 'official' album by Psyclopean. While the single extended song featured here remains embedded in a minimalist nature, the textures, atmosphere, and aesthetic capture a new subtle complexity. This pulls the patient listener into a state of ebb and flow with brief moments of adrenaline-pumping cosmic madness.
"The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far. The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age."
-H.P. Lovecraft, "The Call Of Cthulhu"
Written, recorded, and performed by Matt Schmitz.
