Blood Boils ( Chapter 1)

Liner Notes

The Three Shards
Chapter 1: Blood Boils
As the clans enter Parliament they waste no time. Fingers point, blame flies, and accusations cut the fragile bonds between the factions of the Parliament. The poles are largely clear – most of the vampire clans align their fates with either Hóng shǒu rén (Red Hand People) or Los Bebedores (The Drinkers). But the great surprise is a smaller third splinter group, Hridayabhakshakah, the Heart Eaters, and their restless leader, Rakshasi.

Great lyrics! They really paint a picture.

I like the big change from the previous track to this, we’ve gone from an overture to the first “battle” in a way. Very intense, I like the change around 2:00

Very cool build and layering setting the scene for what feels like a pending battle royale of parliament pole of vampires.

I like the mix of electronica and cinematic/orchestral. Clear motif, great dynamics and layering, superb production, the intensity keeps building up. Excellent!

I found this through clicking on #darkwave because i used that in a song description and thought "..maybe idk what that even means" but listening to this, i think YES, i got the genre right. This is really cool! I like the boots and cats drum beat that comes in and the higher synth melody - still dark but give it a bit of an alt pop feel.

That pulsing synth and drum are really grooving and help set the mood well.

Movie for sure, grit and purpose shining through. Very interesting to see the stuff you've used to put this track together, some I have and need to make better use of it seems. This has such an infectious and driving beat to it
[avatar]
OK here we go now! No doubt you guys are honing in your craft. Every year it gets better and better.
[avatar]
Epic! 🤘🏻

Love the frantic, tension filled atmospherics you’ve achieve with this - perfectly captures the description you’ve given in the song notes. It felt polished without losing any of the grit which is not easy to achieve!!

OMG I am pure bopping to this on my sofa, great groove man. LOVE the story, I'm gonna go listen to the next two chapters now. You've got me excited for what's to come!! 🤩

EDIT: omg there's a prologue?!

Very cool stuff, oh A of Eye. I don't know how to verbalize what I like of the piece but it feels moviesque.

Every instrument sounds a little bit abrasive, amplifying the tention of the work, keeping me on edge a bit. The drops and rises sneak in and the strings sound like people pointing and screaming. Does what it says on the tin. Very well done. Looking forward to hearing the whole album!
[avatar]
Figured I'd go ahead and listen to this, since your first song got me into the spirit of the story. Awesome insistent groove here!
[avatar]
I imagined a successor of Blade movies or Cyberpunk games. Great sounddesign!
[avatar]
Giving me synth wave in all the best ways, absolutely throbbing and love the narrative to go along with it
[avatar]
The heart eaters? Nice... Both figuratively and literally. :)
[avatar]
I love all the names you create for all the characters and groups. Great pulsing tune as tensions rise!

Very 80s sci fi terminator intro sounding. I love it
