KEKHT ARÄKH - Pale Swordsman LP Experimental shows the myth of Venus

shows the myth of Venus in a dystopian and dreamlike world

Tom Donlinger on drums and of course Wales on keyboards

Her rich playing is warped beyond recognition through inventive synthesizing and digital manipulations

— Michael Ehlers & Zac Brenner

and the unrelenting support of Haynes and Workman

KEKHT ARÄKH - Pale Swordsman LP Experimental shows the myth of VenusKkht Arkh is the Ukrainian project founded in 2018 by Dmitry Marchenko. Originally released on the Finnish label Livor Mortis in 2021, Pale Swordsman goes to even greater extents in building a bold and atmospheric sonic palette, and it's now seeing a worldwide reissue via Brooklyn label Sacred Bones. For the sound design of the album, Dmitry was inspired by The Stooges' Raw Power to deliver a more soft sounding album, decisively less "metal".
