GENRE: Noise/Ambient, Psychedelic Black Metal/Ambient
STATUS: Active
LOCATION: USA
Formed in 2022.
IMPORTANT NOTE: While Christian, this project is NOT intended for Christians. A lot of it is intentionally made to emulate the "dark" / "obscure" feelings of a lot of left-hand music, in order to "speak a language" that those listeners can understand more easily.
The plan is for full-length albums to be noise/ambient, while series of shorter EPs will be released in metal styles.
Lineup:
Nocturnal Iridescence - All instruments, Vocals
+ credit to God; songwriting, lyrics, art direction, etc

I
had to make the song slightly shorter to fit on a CD-R. I did this by
speeding it up slightly. That's why there are 2 different track lengths
and 2 different backs for the artwork. No copies of the CD-R ever ended up being ordered, thus none were ever printed.
The tree symbol in the CD-R layout is (a flawed recreation of) a symbol given to me by God, meant to stand against / counter things like nature worship, neopaganism, nature-based new age beliefs, etc.

To Drown unto Life in the Water of the Holy Spirit (EP, 29 August, 2024, Independent)
Format: Digital / Bandcamp
Stream / Download (OFFICIAL)
Also stream on YouTube (OFFICIAL)
Originally planned to have at least 3 tracks. I ran out of inspiration and took it as a sign to release it as-is.
1) The Ocean as a Catalyst for Divine Awakening
6:19, lyrics:
Blue mist of the one god's creation
Calls the soul, destroys the landmasses
Kills the siren, kills the hydra
Encompassing prison of Leviathan
"For since the beginning, God has made His divine attributes clear in the very fabric of nature." (Romans 1:20)
Abode for life, creation of air
Depths science cannot conquer
Fitting illustration of rebirth
Serenity of sound and solitude
Waves crash. A humid mist pervades.
The cold water refreshes. Contemplate, see.
Yet know the might of God.
The depths protect, yet kill;
Glisten, yet darken.
Hear the call from the Creator of the unknown abyss:
"This water is as the world, deep and dark,
Unknowable and crushing;
Yet it is as your Father, strong and replenishing.
See, then, and learn: feel, and understand:
The mysteries are all known to Me;
Sail forth, and I shall be as the starlit sky,
A navigation tool on your voyage."
The sacred baptism
Dead and alive with Him
2) Noachian
4:47, lyrics:
A great storm comes
Evil grew too great on earth
Water manifests a corporeal
and incorporeal justice
Sitra Ahra nullified unto Abaddon
The drowning of Lemuria
Olam ha-ba closed for 40 days
Tohu va Bohu the only solution
Bolivia, Peru, China,
The Mi'kmaq, the K'iche'
Told in the Vedas and the Bible
History will proclaim the flood
Noah unpolluted by the nephilim
Sole terrestrial manifestation
of the primordial intent of divinity
Hear the voice of God: "Build the ark!"
In the beginning, God made the earth and it was good
A mathematical miracle of calculation by the divine
Man abused his gifts and polluted God's innocent creation
Refusing to turn back, their hand is forced by a need for justice
"There will be hope
I will command it
Grieved by this evil
Justice will prevail
"I will see to it
Arbitration is finished
I will wash it all away
I will cleanse this earth
"So great is their evil,
animals must perish,
children must perish,
just to begin healing creation
"Yet see, I have established a bow
This deluge will not come again"
In the beginning, God made the earth and it was good
A mathematical miracle of calculation by the divine
Man abused his gifts and polluted God's innocent creation
Refusing to turn back, their hand is forced by a need for justice
"My child, see, this day
As the water condemns, so does it cleanse
Repent this day, you are not too lost
I see you, child, you are not like them
Out of the hands of the nephilim
Out of the deluge and into the ark
I love you."
