The Silence
Electrofolk
A 15-Track Journey Through Gods, Monsters, and the Cost of Saving the World
The story of my dark fantasy novel, Blood of the Wild Gods: The Silence, told through music. Each song follows its characters and events as an ancient god awakens, drawing five lives into a struggle against the unmaking of their world.
Celtic and Nordic folk instruments meet electronic bass, melodic rap, layered choirs, and glitch effects, carrying the story from its first whispers to its final battle.
A companion to the novel and a story told through music, about corrupted faith, found family, and what people will give to protect one another.
