The Desaturating Seven

Primus

A psychedelic prog-rock fable based on a children's book. Interlocking bass and guitar lines create a dense, vibrant forest of sound that is both eerie and whimsical.

It's a prog-rock bedtime story about color-eating goblins played by the world's weirdest power trio.

A whimsical yet unsettling fairy tale told through complex, interlocking rhythms and eerie atmospheres.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The transition into the frantic, interlocking guitar and bass riff at the three-minute mark of The Trek.
The eerie, bowed bass intro of The Valley that sets a cinematic, forest-floor tone.
The heavy, stomping groove of The Seven that mimics the march of the rainbow-eating goblins.
