Kali Yuga's album, The Cosmology Of Decay is a sonic exploration of the processes that move all of life towards disorganization, disorder and decay. These songs are beautiful yet desolate landscapes, scattered bones, dilapidated mansions and forgotten histories. Along this path of introspection, hymns are sung to forgotten gods, mythologies, pantheons, lost loves and life ways.

To conjure this sonic cabinet of curiosities, Kali Yuga calls upon many influences from the past, the bygone days of post punk and gothic rock infused with the dark atmosphere of the rotting south. With soaring frenetic guitars and tribal drumming this album stands as a fetish against and a tribute to this inevitable Iron Age.
