released July 7, 2023

"'Another cult held that the soul had originally descended to earth through the planetary spheres, gaining from each one a different earthly quality. After death it had to re-ascend through the spheres, shedding these qualities and arriving at the outermost sphere in its pristine state of purity.' The Greek's practice of placing dead heroes among the stars, called 'catasterism' (translation to the stars), may well reflect the Mithraic idea of the soul returning to its divine origin." (Aspects of Anglo-Saxon Magic, Bill Griffiths)

Recorded in the winter of 2022.

Scaleby
by The Inward Circles

supported by 65 fans who also own “These Other Heavenly Bodies (Preview)”

Scaleby is found on the other side of the veil, compared to its coarser twin sister And Right Lines Limit And Close All Bodies. The patches of unsourcable sounds seem filtered through dense layers of mud and fog, emerging as dissonant and hobbling remnants of a grey funeral past still instilling their complex feelings into a quivering present. Often muffled, at times stinging, but always deeply cathartic, Scaleby is an other beautifully crafted melancholic ode to the inevitability of decay. Dotflac
