about

Evoking the memory of a long forgotten empire now buried beneath layers of dust, Deriva’s Cromelech stands as a testament to ancient times.

Monolithic stone sculptures echo hymns dedicated to a fallen empire, with wall-dropping trumpets and earth-wrathing drum beats. Almeida discards any trace of lyrical abstract playing, opting instead for a rigorous stance with austere phrases reminiscent of hypnotic guitar lines, as if reciting lost tales of Gilgamesh's saga.

Slow and steady emerging of a vast sea of white noise and fuzz, Martin's drums reach ashore in a continuum of energy and intricate detail.

This derive is Debord’s nightmare, as we find ourselves wandering further than anticipated into a distant and unremembered land.
