Asphodel Meadows is the debut album from Varia, a producer duo from Slovenia. This hypnotic descent into the depths of the underworld merges dark psychedelic rhythms with shadowy, dreamlike soundscapes. Named after the Asphodel Meadows—an eerie realm in Greek mythology where the souls of the dead wander in eternal twilight—the meadows are depicted as a place of neutrality, neither blissful nor torturous. This album beckons you into the obscure, where the line between sanity and madness dissolves, and the state of trance becomes a doorway to the unknown. With its twisted sonic experimentations and immersive atmospheres, Asphodel Meadows pulls listeners into a surreal experience, where the eerie beauty of the meadows unravels within the shadows of the mind. This sonic journey is an introspective exploration of the boundaries of consciousness, perfect for those seeking an immersive escape into the sinister and otherworldly.

Asphodel Meadows

6. Varia - Maketa (195 BPM) - LP Asphodel Meadows - Metacortex Records

EN

PicharknesS is born from dissociation.
From the impulse to translate that which cannot be put into words.
The discomfort, the emptiness, the introspection.
Driven by experimental, darkpsy and psycore, the sound does not follow lines, it cuts.

The proposal is simple: disconnect from the surface and dive inside yourself.
May the body be there, but the mind go far.
No promises of comfort, only surrender to the unknown that exists within each one of us.


PT-BR

PicharknesS nasce da dissociação.
Do impulso de traduzir aquilo que não cabe em palavras.
o incômodo, o vazio, a introspecção.
Movido pelo experimental, darkpsy e psycore, o som não segue linhas, ele corta.

A proposta é simples: se desconectar da superfície e mergulhar dentro de si.
Que o corpo esteja ali, mas a mente vá longe.
Sem promessas de conforto, só a entrega ao desconhecido que existe dentro de cada um.
