Listen to Superbia

Summer fast approaches, and with it the impending release of SALIGIA. In commemoration of the website refresh to match the new album, it will be announced: SALIGIA will be released on May 25.

In addition to the release date, the first song from the album, Superbia, has been published in its entirety both on the Myspace and the Facebook (though Myspace’s player is a major hit on sound quality; I recommend listening to it through the Facebook page for better sound). The first of the deadly sins, Superbia (Pride) takes the text of Satan’s speech from John Milton’s Paradise Lost and juxtaposes it with clips from the best darn botox-stuffed health, wealth, and prosperity preacher around, Mr. Osteen.

Second Previews of SALIGIA

The second wave of previews is here for SALIGIA – the first and last songs on the album: Superbia (pride), and Avaritia (greed). Two more songs to go, but even with only five songs completed, SALIGIA already beats Ero Cras’ playing time by a good minute, with an average song length of 7:09 so far. It promises to be a much more comprehensive album in just about every respect, and is on track for an early summer release.

Avaritia

And since there are only two previews to speak of this time, I shall reveal the album artwork as well.

News from the Studio

Hello all,
A small update about the new album: recording and mixing are going quite well, and SALIGIA is so far turning out to be miles ahead of Ero Cras. The plan is to be finished by early summer 2009, and to release the album shortly thereafter.

So far in the various songs, there have been texts from a wide variety of sources: Hildegard Von Bingen, Federico GarcĂ­a Lorca, and John Milton have all been drawn from, as well as a good bit of self-composed text. The first audio samples will be posted soon, as well as the album cover, so stay tuned!
