A truly enigmatic sound journey both sonically and visually, the record
is named in honor of The Hypogeum of Ħal Saflieni, a Neolithic
subterranean structure in Paola, Malta. Believed to be the oldest
prehistoric underground temple in the world, The Hypogeum is cloaked in
mystery, from the discovery of elongated skulls to tales of paranormal
phenomena. It’s widely understood that the Hypogeum was originally used
as a sanctuary, possibly for an oracle. It is for this reason that a
unique chamber carved out of solid limestone and demonstrating incredible
acoustic properties has been called “The Oracle Chamber.”
In advance of the record’s release, THE ORACLE has unveiled a video for
first singe “Akeldama”. The clip serves as the first of a six-part
video series that will ultimately culminate into a 34 minute short film
bridging together the record’s mysterious theme.
Hypogeum will be released digitally and on limited edition vinyl August
14th.
Fans of Tangerine Dream, Coil, Sunn O))), and Vangelis pay heed.
