“Excarnate Light is a key track from our new album End Terrain, a concept album exposing a vision of the world consumed by waste.” – explain the members of Locrian, talking about today’s premiere. “Excarnate Light works in movements, building and then disassembling and then reconstructing itself again. Lyrically it is about not even knowing if we were to go extinct, that humanity would be so self-involved the moment would just slip on by – that we wouldn’t notice.”
End Terrain is the group’s most direct and concise work to date. More complex and layered than anything in the prolific trio’s catalogue, End Terrain is a concept album exposing a vision of a future earth consumed by waste. An apocalyptic landscape, inhabited by a generation who despise their parentage and a dying breed fully aware of the wasteland they have left. Mountains of trash and an uninhabitable planet, endless and dead. End Terrain is about inertia and regret, about the future and a mirror to the present, about mourning and extinction.
