Prosaic

pinkytheent With a savage attack, Prosaic mines the experiences of futility, the passing of hard and fruitless hours, the grappling with the maddening pulls of desire and aversion always yanking you away from the present moment. I am rereading Gibran’s the Prophet and so Prosaic feels apropos, though Mizmor’s heaviness gives the themes a grim and ferocious resolve rather than still peace. Art which mines specific place and time is most impactful and Mizmor did very well in creating art-to-theme. Favorite track: No Place To Arrive.

alecdweeb One of the best black metal albums I've heard in years. Masterful atmosphere with soul crushing segments of doom. 10/10. will be listening to this one for years to come.

about

MIZMOR mastermind A.L.N. describes the new album "Prosaic" in his own words: "The idea behind “Prosaic” was to make an intentionally less conceptual, more slice-of-life record. I wanted to make an album that was less precious and obsessed-over, more honest and real; less grandiose and more human. I found it an interesting challenge to find the line between ‘you can do better’ and ‘you’re beating a dead horse.’ I tried to make my process more efficient and even fun at times. I simply wanted to share, but if that meant exacting all-out perfectionism, I wasn’t going to make a record. Right now I’m interested in making less self-indulgent music. The themes are the absurdity/futility/purpose/meaning of work, mindfulness/consciousness/living in the present moment/shedding illusions, depression/acceptance/contentment. This is the first MIZMOR album without any content relating to god/atheism. You also won’t hear any shrieks."
