The Ring Bearer: Shadows Through Hollow Night is an epic metal concept album that retells Book 1 of The Fellowship of the Ring through soaring power metal anthems, dark alt-metal intensity, and touches of folk-metal warmth.

Across more than a dozen chapters, the album blends thundering riffs, symphonic layers, and spoken-word narration to carry the listener from the forging of the One Ring to Frodo’s first steps beyond the Shire. Triumphant choruses and galloping guitars echo the battles of Elves and Men, while ominous dirges and whispered invocations embody the Ring’s corruption and the terror of the Nazgûl.

Moments of light break through, Shire folk songs, Bombadil’s playful chants, and heartfelt oaths of friendship, before plunging back into shadows of pursuit and despair. The result is a cinematic metal saga, equal parts mythic and personal: a reimagining of Tolkien’s tale through the lens of power, struggle, and hope.

Step into the road, where metal meets myth, and shadows fall across hollow night.

The Ring-Bearer: Shadows Through Hollow Night

A conceptual journey through isolation, revelation, and cosmic insight. “Corridors” tells the story of a lone traveler navigating a futuristic wasteland of silence and thought, where reason and wonder intertwine. Synth-driven haze meets driving riffs and introspective lyrics in this modern myth of awakening.

Corridors

An alternative rock journey through the hidden struggles of mental health and neurodivergence.
This song gives voice to the misunderstood—to those carrying invisible weights.
Autism, ADHD, depression, anxiety—real battles often mislabeled as apathy or failure.

From piercing lyrics to emotional guitar work, Beyond the Surface confronts the pain of being misjudged and unheard. It’s a cry for empathy, wrapped in distortion and melodic tension.
A war rages behind the smile—and this is its battle cry.

For the ones who keep going, even when no one sees the fight.

God Eater - No Way Back (Power Metal Cover)

In the darkness before the First Age, Ungoliant hungered for the light of creation itself. Her lullaby devours stars, her web smothers flame, and her craving knows no end. A symphonic descent into the void where even gods tremble to tread.

Lullaby of Hunger

In the darkness before the First Age, Ungoliant hungered for the light of creation itself. Her lullaby devours stars, her web smothers flame, and her craving knows no end. A symphonic descent into the void where even gods tremble to tread. In this extended cut, her voice turns inward, confessing that no feast, no power, can ever still the void within her.
