The British neo-folk duo Lady Morphia shall issue a new album this year, their first in over six years. The disc, entitled Essence and Infinity, is currently being mastered by Axel Frank (Werkraum) at Blue Lounge Studios in Berlin.

A description at the band’s website:
“Consisting of ten tracks, this long-player undoubtedly constitutes the group’s strongest work to date. The range of styles contained thereon is immensely diverse, stretching from tenebrous experimental ambience to beautiful acoustic ballads, via lush classical orchestrations, darkly energetic rock and more.
Despite the genre-spanning nature of the various compositions, the entire recording is underpinned by a conceptual and atmospheric unity which ensures the inseparable coherence of the whole. All pieces are inspired in some way by the work of the German philosopher Oswald Spengler.”

Previews of the new album can be heard at the Lady Morphia website. Older tracks can be enjoyed at myspace.com/ladymorphia.
