UK-based dark ambient/gothic act Skrika presents via Cryo Chamber a new album entitled Vyeltyra Vortex. The album offers a masterfully crafted cinematic dark ambient experience that continues to expand on the universe that started with the album Fifth Nature.
"The Yn, having fled from a dying Earth, have charted their own path of exploration to that of Cerria and her followers, searching for a new home. Worshipping the mystical natural powers of the universe, the Yn have travelled to a myriad of planets seeking enlightenment. Every new civilisation they encounter speaks in awe of Vyeltyra-B, and of the mysterious and secretive Vyeltyrans - a race that can control time - the chrononsphere. The Yn quickly discover that rather than a path to enlightenment, on Vyeltyra-B a path awaits of a far darker kind.
Understood by the Vyeltyrans as an evolving force, time requires great prowess to control, otherwise, it can tear apart the very fabric of your being - your soul from your body. The Vyeltyrans have devised a series of rites of passage all must undergo. These rites are designed to test control of your thoughts and memories across time, and of your spiritual and physical being across multiple intersecting timelines. The leaders of the Yn - Atom, Fiadh, and Ebba - agree to undergo these rites. Initiates progress through a series of chambers for each rite, with each becoming increasingly more challenging."
Skrika is highly recommended to those who enjoy dark gothic soundscapes and is a must for fans of crisp production, psychoacoustic ambience and ethereal atmospheres. The entire album is available for streaming right here. Could you give it a listen? Link
