"As Above So Below" is a concept album heavily inspired by Egyptian mythology. Each track portrays a different Egyptian God. The style ranges from heavy djenty riffs to melodic and soothing cleans.
The sound ranges from heavy Djent riffs embraced by Oriental elements and harsh vocals,
to soothing, storytelling music that takes the listener back to the age of the old ancient Gods.
Nimrod, also known as "Osiris", is an Egyptian Lord of the Underworld and Judge of the Dead.
