Founded in Berlin in 2015 the four piece band established their own sound which is created through dark doomy and sludgy riffs with a touch of black metal covered in clouds of psychedelics!

Lares comments: “The title comes from a major asteroid discovered in 1849, named after the pagan goddess of health and represented by a serpent drinking from a bowl, a serpent that is also part of the Lares imaginary.

The song’s concept is about the constant relation between celestial bodies, human embodiment, the cycle of death and rebirth in deep space and the visceral communion between them that transcends the ordinary and delves into the macabre. There is an echo that reverberates through the abyss, a dimension where the boundaries between nightmare and reality blur.

The song is part of the soundtrack of »Music Appreciation«, a short horror movie by Lucas Milhomen. During lockdown we were asked to collaborate on the movie by creating a Lares version of the main theme soundtrack written by the composer Eylül Biçe and to perform it in the movie. The movie has not been released yet.”

Recorded live in Lares studio, mixed by Luca Leprotti (David di Donatello Awards for Best Sound on »Volevo Nascondermi« by Giorgio Dritti) and mastered by Brad Boatright at Audiosiege studio in Portalnd OR (Sunn O))), Sleep, Magma, Obituary).

The videoclip of »10 Hygiea« contains live footage from the band’s recent concert at Reset Club in Berlin, shot and edited by Paolo Lombardi.
