Took quite a long time.. but it is my most epic and cohesive piece. Before I started writing I was going through some tough times and had finished putting together a strange contrasting double album which will eventually be released as two separate albums, called Lines / ChangD (this is not a typo). Lines was a very dark album which ended with a bit of an epiphony, while ChangD was a healing album. These were concept pieces but I had yet to write a full concept piece based on a specific happening.  The Pendant became that concept album.

I cannot tell you what it is specifically about and have really only told a handful of people (making the mistake of telling somebody just this week), but it feels like an odd fantasy story with a few terrifying moments. What I can tell you about is a story within the story – the pendant itself. This part of the story is completely fictional and based on an old human obsession – world peace, or a selfish peace (whichever you choose). The pendant is a mythical dream object searched for and obsessed over. It is found in this story, on track 8. What happens will be eventually revealed when I get off of my ass and record this properly.
