Buried Giant by In a Forest Dark

Buried Giant is a conceptual album, drawing inspiration from Kazuo Ishiguro's novel, 'The Buried Giant.' The album's lyrics poignantly delve into themes of memory loss, the disintegration of the individual as a living entity, the profound awareness of this degenerative process, and the relentless struggle for self-preservation. As the moment arrives, it signifies the defeat of the mind, a journey into death, even though the body endures. It's akin to a dormant seed, silently awaiting the summons of its own ashes.

In a Forest Dark is the solo project from multi-instrumentalist Mário Pereira (Eternal Mourning).

Drawing influences from black metal with elements of doom and gothic, In a Forest Dark explores themes inspired by existentialist philosophy.
