Rome- Hierophant (PREORDER)
At the end of the project's 20th anniversary celebrations, ROME rings in the next era of the band with a fresh and visionary album: The Hierophant. Whatever the great poets have affirmed in their finest moments is the nearest we can come to an authoritative religion or truth. It is in this spirit that ROME welcomes listeners into the temple of The Hierophant. The songs are both enigmatic and touching, a strange sacrament, elusive and half-hidden, like the gospel of a soft cult. Musically, the radically reduced folk of earlier work is still very much present, though different in calibre. Sprinkled with sparse percussion and dream-like string sections, each track unfolds like a veiled scripture; a collection of layered sonic devotion adorned with symbols and spells, demanding attentive and repeated listening.
Tracklist:
- Secret Harbour
- The Harvest Is Not Here
- Days of Assembly
- On Sorrow's Embankment
- The Chalice and the Blade
- When Light Be Gone
