Birth

Death
Finite Self
Suffer
Learn
Anti-Life
[Alan Watts]: the universe is that sort of scheme, it's a trap
it's the thing that gives you hope, to keep you going
but then it grinds you up and then it revives you a little like a master torturer
keeping a person alive in order to experience pain
there is a kind of inverted mystical experience that people occasionally have
where they see the whole universe as this sort of trap
and everything looks crummy
people look as if they're made of plastic and aren't really people but only make-believe people
they're mechanisms
the fundamentally important philosophical question is whether or not to commit suicide
now that's the real question, is the game worth the candle
if you think no, then you 'd better commit suicide
that's the logical thing to do
if on the other hand you 're not sure, then you'd better make up your mind
because if you're gonna go on with the game of life and not be sure as to whether it's really worth going on
you 'll make a mess of it
it's like doing something evil, like telling a lie
if you 're gonna tell a lie at all, you have to make it stick
Life really is
not the avoidance of death
death is the avoidance of death
the constant terror of death, the constant putting it off
that is death
what we call life is
fundamentally willingness to die
constant jumping of being into not being

about
kevel Athens, Greece
KEVEL create unconventional yet coherent sonic boulders, extending away from specific
rules/barriers of
the metal sub-genres.
If the 2014 self-released debut “Hz of the Unheard” was
a progressive sludge instrumental album, “Mutatis Mutandis” explores other musical paths, combining post/black metal, progressive elements and spacey soundscapes, introducing also vocals and synths for the first time.
