The Din

Traitors to kindred created by BMH.
"The Din, the din is omnipresent... We wanted to capture the absolute torture of the crimes against kindred. Lake Cocytus is the frozen lake on the lowest circle of hell.
"We wanted to encapsulate the sound of being stuck at the bottom frozen from the neck down in ice with incessant everlasting noise. We generated wind using a Dreadbox Medusa, wrote a poem when drunk after a game of cricket, recorded glossolalic cries down a 2 metre cardboard tube with a microphone at the end of it and pushed a whole lot of tremolo through in post production to mimic the reverb and echo spinning round and round the lake for ever more.
"For ever. The Din is for ever. Think twice."
