Dungeon synth project Lurk has a new album out on Realm & Ritual. It’s five movements that detail a descent into Hell and back, concluding with the ultimate redemption. Created during quarantine, the record is metaphoric for the spiraling into instability that not only society suffered but many of us individually did as the pandemic took hold on our senses of comfort and routine. Lurk creates a Poe-inspired horror atmosphere akin to the rapid decay of modern normalcy, grasping with all one’s might onto any means of survival.
