Galgenberg by Unrevealed

Open your mind, and discover cracks in the fabric of our world. Those cracks allow us a glimpse into another sphere. And the afterlife.

"Galgenberg" (Gallows Hill) focuses on contacts with other worlds - including those experiences that are forced. We travel through a misty FIELD OF STONES, remembering us on all the people that already crossed the world-separating river. We travel, dangerously, on a MOUNTAIN RIDGE, high above the mortal world, only a step away from nothingness. We listen to the WHISPERING SPIRITS, whose voices can be heard only in our minds. We suffer with the doomed souls that are pushed to the GALGENBERG (German for GALLOWS HILL), and face the invincible, personified death itself - a horrible creature, a TOTENDRACHE (German for DEATH DRAGON), lurking beneath the roots of the world. But eventually, we get a glimpse on other spheres on a rainy day around a foggy lake, when a CLEFT IN THE MIST gifts us a moment of relief, an experience beyond mortal existence.

The search for a glimpse into another sphere comes with a certain state of mind. That's why I wanted to let the material reflect the scars ans bruises which we encounter during life, and which form our being. The acoustic material therefore wears scratches, rush, noise and muffled passages that cross the border exactly there, where a damaged soul dives into unknown waters.

"Unrevealed" is a dungeon synth / dark ambient solo project of the author Johan Alberich. It's a journey of the mind, sometimes adventurous, sometimes calm or mysterious, and always with a narrative element.
