about

What we found was not a paradise. but in reality it was a “dark, dangerous” world, the only inhabitant of which was a Synthetic, David 8 of USCSS Prometheus. After his ten years of isolation on a deserted Engineer Planet-4. It seemed that David had acquired his own sense of individuality and the ability to possess genuine human emotions when he openly expressed his love for Shaw, but his curiosity in creating a life evolving from charm became total obsession. His contempt for humanity bore fruit with ill intentions and desires...

Having come to the Planet- 4, David came to the conclusion that engineers and people are equally inferior to androids. At some point, he killed Shaw, his convinced dark side swallowed the light that nourished his mind from interacting with Shaw, Shaw, who fixed David and showed him such compassion he never experienced before as they journey to Planet-4. He began conducting experiments on her dismembered corpse to find a way to create his own hybrid creature.

This album will take you through a surreal, Dark, Space Ambiance of David-8 mind, a journey for further study of the Engineers, His descent into a darker personality when he begins his own experiments, There is illumination with one person whom he admired. Which then becomes extinguished, And with the arrival of the USCSS Covenant... What is David preparing to do with 2,000 colonists, 1,140 embryos and a ripe chief terraformist "Daniels" aboard the colonization spacecraft USCSS Covenant bound for Origae-6...

'My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!'

I listen to a lot of dark ambient. It rarely gets to me, but hours of The Rosenshoul's albums have me thinking my destiny is trapped forever between the walls of some decaying manor. hello swirl

NIGHTMARE FUEL! Industrial sci-fi dark ambient from beginning to end. I can feel the ageing bulkheads creaking and straining through the cold depths of space. The isolation and every nuance of the ships sounds are perfectly visualised. Space Ambient has never been so wonderfully bleak. darkdelight
