MODERN RITES are the Industrial
Metal duo of guitarist Berg (AARA) and
multi-instrumentalist/vocalist/lyricist Jonny Warren (KUYASHII).
Building upon acclaimed 2021 debut "Monuments", new
album "Endless" unifies, elevates and perfects the
band's vision, ebbing and flowing between oppressive isolation and furious
optimism in an anthemically intense exploration of the human condition.
Tracklist:
01. Prelude
02. Endless
03. Lost Lineage
04. Veil of Opulence
05. Becoming
06. For Nothing
07. Autonomy
08. Philosophenweg
The album was mixed and mastered by Simón Da Silva at The Empty Hall
Studio. Cover design is by Jonny Warren.
Composer Jonny Warren discusses new album "Endless"
and the enigmatic cover artwork:
"The title of the album sums up the idea behind the record. The lyrics
in both the title track and album encompass themes around cycles of
self-discovery, historical repetition, and ideological conflict. Each song
marks milestones along a pathway that loops into itself as humanity is locked
into an ebb and flow with each passing era. The aesthetic changes between the
two cover artworks were a more organic evolution as we wrote more and more for
the album. We knew we wanted to build upon the foundation of the first album,
which in a metaphorical sense meant stepping outside of that sterile structure
we built and surveying the landscape around it. For the artwork, we wanted
imagery that represented the more human moments of contemplation and longing
present throughout the album, where previously the artwork of the first album
depicted a monument containing the inner self."
