Nova Scotia (Canada) atmospheric/melancholic prog rock solo artist Marc Durkee will release his new album entitled Remain In Stasis on 18th January 2019. Inspired by Katatonia, Tesseract, Anathema, Devin Townsend, Coheed & Cambria, Marc Durkee's music can be described as a blend of progressive, metal/rock, doom metal, post-hardcore, and post-rock.
Marc Durkee has now released a video for the acoustic cover of Ghost's "He Is". Marc Durkee is a big fan of Swedish metal hit makers Ghost. Covering their songs over the years, he has posted his latest acoustic rendition of "He Is", which can be viewed in the player below.
Mark: "I really enjoyed Ghost’s Prequelle album they released this year. I’d already done a few acoustic covers of songs from it, which were well received, so I decided to throw it back to one of my favourites from their previous album."
Durkee’s new album Remain In Stasis is loaded with deep meaning to this courageous and talented solo artist, as he explains: “The first meaning of this release is personal. I’ve been stuck in a state of depersonalization for almost five years now. For me, it’s been a chronic symptom of dealing with years of depression and stress, and it’s unrelenting. When it’s at its worst, it removes mostly all motivation and enjoyment from my life. While that is unfortunate, it does serve as a major source of inspiration for song-writing… The second meaning is more political and universal. I feel that humanity is at a unique point in our history, with technology and social media allowing us to communicate and express ourselves in ways that were previously unimaginable. And yet, nobody really DOES communicate. It seems as though it’s mostly used as a platform to bicker over political ideals and agendas and create discourse, or for anyone to use as their own personal performance venue. Everyone wants to be seen and heard, even those who really don’t deserve to be.” Link
