### **Afterimage - Earthbound** ![[Afterimage - Earthbound 2.jpg]] ## Narrative: An invading alien force has arrived in our lifetime, and we have the means to fight back with the powerful forces of sound, this album epitomises the musical journey in the battle for our souls... This influential album, is the consolidation of After Image’s struggle through the darker sides of the soul, and to become victorious over the demons of self, that are contained within each of us. Each track represents a particular facet of the melancholic dissolution of self, and the realisation of oneness that connects us on a incredibly deeper level of intuitive [connectedness]. The journey begins with a grounding in the areas of what we are today as humans, in that we are bound to the earth. Thus, as the title suggests, we are earthbound spirits created from the very stuff of stars, filled with the immortal soul and bound in a form of bondage to this earth, to experience the sensations of physicality and understand this very adventure. The overall melancholic feeling that is prevalent in this track, is a representation of the feeling of separation from source field, and the realisation that individuality has the cost of being aware of the difference contained within each other. The next part of our adventure through the divine, is highlighted in Last Stand, which it is that in itself, a last stand against the forces of an Archontic nature, that would keep us contained within their interdimensional matrix, to become the fuel to support them in their oppression of the otherwise limitless soul of humanity. It shifts the attention away from the depressive reality that we co-exist in and make a figurative line in the sand, to in part, make our stand against those that would seek to keep us wrapped in ignorance. Following this Last Stand, we are now faced with a backlash from the drawing of the lines in the sand, as we are forced to go through a cathartic release of the information we are taught to enforce the will of the archontic nature, so to fight back from our last stand, we have to remove the internal programming that has been instilled in us from birth and remove these harmful traumas, to face the truth that is inherent beyond, face value of this human experience. Finally, the truth is revealed in the Shepherds of the Night, as we expose the true agents of the archons, and how their use of nefarious methods to continue the physical genetic experimentation of humanity, to continue their aggressive agenda in the creation of a pure slave like drone, to enforce the bondage we are all enraptured within. To perpetuate the dogma of fear and enslave the mind-body to serve their masters in the creation of the interdimensional battery that consists of pure light perverted to their means of domination. Now with Shepherds exposed can we fully take the fight for our immortal souls back into our our sovereign hands. ## Connections: [[Harmalan Fable]] ## Details: **Genre:** Electronic **Style:** Psy-Trance **Year:** 2016 **Procure:** https://conclave-records.bandcamp.com/album/earthbound
