After a period of quiet consolidation, during which the band concentrated on collaborations with the likes of WERKRAUM as well as contributions to compilations, here s the second full-length album of LADY MORPHIA. The range of styles contained on the CD is immensely diverse, stretching from tenebrous experimental ambience to beautiful acoustic ballads, via lush classical orchestrations, darkly energetic rock and more. Despite the genre-spanning nature of the various compositions, the entire recording is underpinned by a conceptual and atmospheric unity which ensures the inseparable coherence of the whole. All pieces are inspired in some way by the work of the German philosopher Oswald SPENGLER, not least by his theory of the bloom and decay of cultures according to organic principles. However, the opus is neither critique nor homage. Instead it places elements of SPENGLER s ideas and imagery in its own service. Whether through its poetic lyrics, an opposite use of samples or simply as a result of the moods created by the songs themselves, the themes that "Essence and infinity" addresses are as compelling as its music).
