Nine Circles

Hell; the realm of those who have rejected spiritual values by yielding to bestial appetites or violence and those who have perverted their human intellect to fraud or malice against their fellowmen
This place is divided into Nine Circles of suffering located within the Earth.

The circles are concentric, representing a gradual increase in wickedness, and culminating at the centre of the earth, where Satan is held in bondage. The sinners of each circle are punished for eternity in a fashion fitting their crimes: each punishment is a contrapasso, a symbolic instance of poetic justice.

It is now through sound that we explore these Nine Circles.

Nine Circles is an instrumental album taking heavy influence from Dante Alighieri's 14th-century epic poem the Divine Comedy.
The track names refer to each circle of Hell as they appear in the first part of the Divine Comedy often referred to as ‘Dante’s Inferno’.

Using dark heavy synths, and satanic electronic sounds; Nine Circles is designed to summon everyone’s inner most demons.
