glitchplease I've been doing music for all 20 years of my life and I look up to HHH the most. Favorite track: Ontological Love.

con Yeah, this is great. Favorite track: Ontological Love.

David Ramnerö Alchemical fusion of hyper real textures and hard to pin down beats that bang hard, and pan hard. I love the vocals. From the viewpoint of punk, indie and rap it shouldn't be that hard to see their merit. How the vocals are executed is however quite unprecedented. On the whole it's a fantastic album that ties together so many loose ends, and emotionally animates me. Thanks Hunter! Favorite track: Tense Stage.

about

Kel Valhaal is the name of the logical agency of faith and acephalic becoming in the The Ark Work, a gesamtkunstwerk which lives at the threshold between philosophical materialism and religion. It is also the moniker for the electronic project I’ve had going since 2010, though I’ve never done an official release until now. The aim of the project is to activate transcendental catharsis using the elements of sound design, and to gnaw on formal and cultural deadlocks between electronic music, rock, rap and classical music. Ultimately these are means of activating a creative-emotive state of divine intuition that is attuned to the object of ultimate concern: what the mystics call the “gift of tears”.
“If Liturgy is a vehicle for grand rock albums, Kel Valhaal is more low key, more of an ongoing flicker;; less finely wrought, with more frequent and shorter releases, more variation, less consistency, more experimentation.
“This music should be approached as one of three wings of a rotating vortex of music, thought and drama called The Perichoresis. Taking up the legacy of American Transcendentalism and German Romanticism with all its contradictory attraction and repulsion to/from underground music culture, the project has a horizon that is ethical, political, and eschatological. Kel Valhaal in part functions to ground Transcendental Qabala (a system of thought) as is also in part the manifestation of Aesthethics (an art practice). These three wings of the Perichoresis propel the ongoing drama of The Ark Work, which is a messianic intervention into global destiny.

She is so back ❤️ still doin all the stuff I’m wild for (spectral mathy riffs, superhuman drumming, shrieking) and the techniques used before that I may have found “difficult” or less pleasing than others, like the chants or “classical” instrumentations, are finessed and more satisfying this go around IMO.

Another instant classic in the Liturgy canon. Even though I'm not religous myself, the transcedental feeling that Liturgy conjurers in their music is really something special and makes me feel a sense of connection with the world that I seldom get to experience. FFO good music. It's that simple. ann3lid
