While pre-orders of Domus Omnium Mortuorum are available from this link.
“The starting point for this album, the inspiration is the monument to Karl Robert Lachmann, the only son of a German, aristocratic family, who died in the Franco-Prussian War (1870-1871), vandalized by cemetery robbers, located in the mausoleum in Jałowiec. His slightly modified image is on the cover.
The idea to even attempt such a concept came from the reflection that the reality in which we live is beginning to resemble the old one, both on the level of society and the common blacksmith. That is why we decided that it would be an interesting game and very inspiring. Generally, despite everything, it is quite delicate, not intrusive, because we wanted it not to be a historical reconstruction group or a thematic album, but invariably a voice that reaches the ear of today’s people, with whom they could identify – on this album, expressed through the mouths of a bygone era. The whole album is connected by the closing of the gate (sound), symbolically referring to the earlier opening of the coffins, but also to the end of that “séance” with the spirits, as well as the closing of the doors of their house, which is a reference to the title of the album “House of all the dead”. This is the symbolic name of the cemetery on this album, where the action takes place, the cemetery that in our story is the home of all the souls who, tormented, forgotten, want to break out to the living, to pass on their suffering to them, thereby finding peace.
