Decline Of The I LP – Johannes (Oxblood Vinyl)

Description

Decline Of The I is a combination of multifaceted, post-black metal and exploratory lyrics, that dwell on topics of existential philosophy. Originating from France (Paris, Žle-de-France), the band was created by AK, who descends from a rich portfolio of past and on-going acts (including Vorkreist, Merrimack, The Order Of Apollyon, Neo Inferno 262, Malhkebre and Diapsiquir), with Decline Of The I being his most personal endeavour yet. While the band’s first three albums were inspired by the works of French surgeon and neurologist Henri Laborit, the new one – entitled “Johannes” – pursues a different approach based on the output of Danish philosopher, S¸ren Kierkegaard, and opens a new trilogy for the band. All music and lyrics were written exclusively by AK, who recorded guitars, keyboards and some of the vocals. He’s surrounded by a full line-up of SI (vocals), AD (bass) and SK (drums).
