Description/Reviews: 

Arcade Messiah combines elements of metal, stoner, doom, prog, math rock, and ambient post rock into a sonic maelstrom of seven instrumental songs.
John Bassett: "after writing and producing numerous KingBathmat albums and more recently the acoustic solo album "Unearth, I decided I wanted to create my first instrumental album, and I wanted it to be set, audibly and visually in a dark, bleak apocalyptic aura of despair and anger. I wanted to focus on enormous riffs & sorrowful yet powerful musical refrains and place them within a terrain of unusual time signatures interspersed by moments of psychedelic calm."

Description/Reviews: 

The album promises to be a subtle, sophisticated album of modern acoustic songs, imbued with melancholic melodies with a progressive slant. The emotive songs of "Unearth" encompass and depict the dark substratum of modern life. Social engineering, existential contemplation, survivalism, childhood truama, love & despair and everything inbetween.
