    Penumbra

     

     

    Deep beneath the loam there lay the germs of Panacea,       

    Forbidden to bear forth a Fruit before their thorns appear.

    but when Catharsis emerges to strike to life quiescent wounds   

    the stratum turns over letting lift the sorrows of Demeter from their hole.

     

     Dare exhume Pandora’s interest, for it houses collective sentiment

    what led her to that vision and act dwelled within her soul to offer man

    a vivid chance to master rites of passage by exposing the pain that he fears.

     

    Embrace your lost and self-neglected dusk

    Caress the risk and kiss the equinox

    befriend the void; accept the emptiness

    reclaim the fulcrum of the solstices.

     

    Torn paper, quills with worn nibs, and trial-impregnated ink’s all a seeker posseses

    while pollinators aid fertilization and savor their labor en masse,

    dragged by ideals towards Ambrosia’s rapture, dismissing the one that stands guard

    watched and protected by altars to Narcissus, forced to face all the grief in my heart.

     

    Deep beneath the loam lie the germs of Panacea,       

    Forbidden to bear forth a Fruit before their thorns appear.

    but when Catharsis emerges to strike to life quiescent wounds   

    stratum turns over letting lift the sorrows of Demeter from their hole.

     

    Arid mourning weaves itself

    round the landscape of my being

    loving solace comforts me

    til its purpose is set free.

    Alitheia

    Dreamscape where realities interact.


    Central to Alitheias foundation are guitarist Raul Valentine and bassist Ricardo Diaz-Albertini. Involved in two previous projects (Savannah Fuma and Below 7), their present sound-philosophy evolves out of intense self-scrutiny.

    Valentines gem-splicing distortion and shimmering cleans become the embodiment of certainty and longing.

    While Ricks growling 4-string abysm complements with empiricism and grounding.

    At the dusk of his hiatus, Alfredo Vicente returns to Miami, Florida and joins the pair in 2001. He offers aspiration and vision by way of multi-textured phrasing and unorthodox themes.

    Eighteen seasons cycle past and drummer Edgar Vanegas at last emerges. Honing asymmetry and explosive calculation, he brings the group forthright assessment and a peculiar integrative synthesis.

    "And thus, Alitheia embraces Love & Shadow.  
    Realizing The Aquiem is but Change's whim."
