Favorite track: This Is Annihilation.
In adherence to the natural course of evolution, where all actions are bound by purpose and utility, it becomes imperative to recognize when the objectives of one's endeavors have been met. With this understanding, I hereby declare the cessation of further creative output under the Mass Graven Image alias, indefinitely. This decision stems from a desire to honor the journey of progression inherent in life.
Moving forward, my focus will be directed towards new ventures and adjunctive projects, some of which are already in their nascent stages. These undertakings are poised to contribute to the ongoing evolution of sound, a pursuit characterized by a steadfast commitment to the integrity and authenticity of content.
Throughout its existence, Mass Graven Image has upheld a standard of uncompromising purity in its sonic expressions, serving as a vessel for the articulation of my experiences that has been in an almost perpetual quest to capture and convey the essence of darkness and tumult through auditory manifestations. Professing traumatic and often malignant opinions of the state of beings, as well, singular in just one human. Myself.
I am seeking to release more expressions of light from my aural reflections and show light towards the dark internally to bring it to the exo-soul.
It's an amazing catalog of human suffering, addiction, remorse, fears, fixations, paranoia, delusions, illusions, condemnations, intrigues, darkness and mystery of existence and its purpose to us here in these lives. But with honesty, I miss love and the feeling of another closeness and worlds pull on the experiences that shape this one I call my own. And from this scar-chorus, no songs of the heart are beckoning to make one fall. In my honest belief, we are truly comprised in substance and actual manifest form by the totality of our thoughts and our appetites. "You are what you eat" is not a statement to be simply dismissed on face value, it holds within it a supreme axiom in relation to the very nature of reality itself. We become a feedback loop unto ourselves if we lack the discernment to see that stagnation only allows for the expanse of its conditions' expectation of outcome.
There is still 4 to 8 albums of unreleased materials that will be incrementally released over the summer to finish out the entire catalog of MGI material, as it is meant to be discovered all over again by my own self. Some of the works are so amazing, at times I don't know how I pulled them off. But such is the moments that tend to take control and become a beholder unto you.
Without further delay, I present Mass Graven Image - Lasting Humanity?
