Phaneronaut

This album has changed course since work on it began. Originally, it was supposed to become "Uyt den gheest", the planned sister album to "Naer het leven". The idea for "Uyt den gheest" was to have two parts, a "Metal" side and a "Wood" side.

But soon while working on the first tracks, a new story/concept for the album presented itself: a journey to heaven; but it's not completely clear if that journey is permanent or just a visit - or if it even actually is heaven where the visitor ends up. That's for you to decide.

What stayed from the original idea is the "Metal" part: All sounds on the album are either, in contrast to other Phaneronaut releases, from digital synthesizers or from sampled "real" instruments that have different kinds of metal as their primary source of sound production (with some exceptions for drums/percussion and voices).
