Methuselah is my dark ambient / doom solo project. The first release 'Tales From The Blasted Heath' was largely inspired by Mortiis & Joy Division, and the writings of HP Lovecraft. Since then, Lovecraft's writing have remained a constant source of lyrical inspiration along with other authers such as Brian Lumley, Edgar Allen Poe and M R James.
The second full-length album 'Miserere' is a 2 part CD, with tracks weighing in at 28 minutes each. More organic sounds are used here, with minimal percussion and long, suffocating, mesmeric samples. The resultant brooding atmosphere has an almost tangible force.
Following that, 'The Burrowers Beneath' is a lot lighter in feel, with clearly structured compositions featuring string instruments, minimal synths and spoken word passages.
Latest album 'The Sleeper In The Abyss' is the most clearly Lovecraftian in theme. This recording combines dense, sinister synth drones with lush string sections, and an over-lying feeling of dread.Have you performed in front of an audience?No, I have never played live. As all my music is sequenced it would take a huge re-think and re-structuring process to perfom live. Apart from this, I like to be shrouded in mystery!
