The title track from our (@fellruin ) forthcoming album “Cast in Oil The Dressed Wrought” has been premiered via @metalinjection

On the surface, CIOTDW opens narratively with our protagonist charging out into the night’s work. A severe hunter who’s tools now eager for prey. With each claim, enlightenment. As well as the insatiable tastes and desires that follow. The pursuit of ecstasy regardless of consequence.”

“Shallow skin for scent allure in blooming lust endure.
Found in the arms of cradled will.
Race to the burning spire.”

For the visual, I’ve always been fascinated with dance and wanted to try my hand at choreographing something to our music. Compiling thousands of photos together to create movement. A frenzied, disorienting interpretation of the piece. The dream walkers our burning spire.

“The cast to fall but no one says a word.
Crawling dance to majesty.
Forger of the decadent trail.”
