The work

Simvlachre is a melodic black metal project shaped by medieval literature, religious imagery, and The Temptation of Saint Anthony. The first chapter is a bestiary of hallucinations: five creatures, five senses, five voices of trauma.

The monsters are not outside enemies. They speak in the first person — fear, desire, obsession, and the part of the self one would rather keep hidden. The visual world stays with the manuscript, the engraving, and the sacred grotesque.
