About the Album

Forgiveness Day is the closing composition from the upcoming concept album "Divinities of the Earth and the Waters". The album follows a psychedelic plot set on an imagined ancient Slavic festival in the preindustrial Balkans, aesthetically reminiscent of the late Sergei Parajanov. Dealing with the human condition, love, loss, myth and struggle, it's exposing the protagonist's life through his reality and imagined perception, from folk festivals in young adulthood to his own funeral ceremony. Musically, it is an album full of orchestral twists, complex arrangements, lyrics in the old Croatian Kajkavian dialect, odd measures, heavy grooves, solos, live electronics, modern and ancient instruments and free improvisations.
