The Story

THE STORY

A TRUE EPIC...

Homerik is a band that creates music inspired by stories, many of them archaic in their own right.

These elder scrolls tell parables that linger throughout time, and we wish to honor our next album in the name of Dante Alighieri, the author of the infamous Dante's Inferno.

A story that we interweave in our own timeline, Homerik's next project (The Circle of Dead Children) will continue the story of A Song of the Night: Part I and show the journey into the afterlife of our protagonist, Dante -- a descendant to the damned bloodline of our little girl character in the nightmarish ballad you witness above...

What is DARK MYTHOLOGY?

Dark mythology is the study and appreciation of stories told, steeped in dark-rooted themes. Homerik is inspired by such content. Visit our social media pages to immerse yourself in your imagination with art from around the world. Some are even commissioned by us!

Freya (Old NorseFreyja, “Lady”) is one of the preeminent goddesses in Norse mythology. She’s a member of the Vanir tribe of deities, but became an honorary member of the Aesir gods after the Aesir-Vanir War. Her father is Njord. Her mother is unknown, but could be Nerthus. Freyr is her brother. Her husband, named Odr in late Old Norse literature, is certainly none other than Odin, and, accordingly, Freya is ultimately identical with Odin’s wife Frigg (see below for a discussion of this).

DANTE'S INFERNO: CANTO VII
.
Dante gets his first glimpse of Circle IV, the circle for the Wasters and the Hoarders. Their punishment is that they are rolling enormous weights at one another, the Wasters shouting, "Why do you hoard?" and the Hoarders shouting, "Why do you waste?" After they clash, the souls hurry their weights back again, only to repeat the action, all the while screaming.

THE MAD COMPOSER
.
As a boy, Ken grew up in an artistic home where creativity was encouraged. He was born in San Juan, Puerto Rico to his mother, Abigail Valle and Hector Candelas. During his teenage years, Ken studied fine art at Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts, and received several awards for his artwork and designs including the Milton Glaser Award and First Place in the Directory of N.Y.C. Public High Schools Design Competition. Upon graduation, Ken decided to pursue his deep interest in rhythm and music production, following in his father's footsteps.

DANTE'S INFERNO: CANTO VI
.
When Dante wakes, he finds that he has been moved to the Third Circle of Hell, where the rains still fall. Now, however, the drops consist of filth and excrement, and a horrific stench fills the air. A three-headed dog, Cerberus, tries to stop Virgil and Dante’s progress, but Virgil satisfies the beast by throwing it a chunk of earth. Dante and Virgil then advance into the circle of the Gluttonous, who must lie on the ground as the sewage rains down upon them.

Njörd's desire of the Sea (1908) by W. G. Collingwood
.
.
In Norse mythology, Njörðr is a god among the Vanir. Njörðr, father of the deities Freyrand Freyja by his unnamed sister, was in an ill-fated marriage with the goddess Skaði, lives in Nóatún and is associated with the sea, seafaring, wind, fishing, wealth, and crop fertility.

"Idun and the Apples” by James Doyle Penrose (1890)
.
.
Idun (pronounced “IH-dune;” from Old Norse Iðunn, “The Rejuvenating One”[1]) is a goddess who belongs to the Aesir tribe of deities. Her role in the pre-Christian mythology and religion of the Norse and other Germanic peoples is unfortunately obscure, but she features prominently in one of the best-known mythological tales, The Kidnapping of Idun. In this tale, which comes to us from the skaldicpoem Haustlöng and the Prose Edda, Idun is depicted as the owner and dispenser of a fruit that imparts immortality.

DANTE'S INFERNO: CANTO V
.
Now ’gin the rueful wailings to be heard.
.
Now am I come where many a plaining voice
Smites on mine ear. Into a place I came
.
Where light was silent all. Bellowing there groan’d
.
A noise, as of a sea in tempest torn
.
By warring winds. The stormy blast of Hell
.
With restless fury drives the spirits on, .
Whirl’d round and dash’d amain with sore annoy.
.
When they arrive before the ruinous sweep, .
There shrieks are heard, there lamentations, moans, .
And blasphemies ’gainst the good
.
Power in Heaven.

Bragi ) is the wise and learned bard of Valhalla, the magnificent hall of the god Odin. Old Norse poetry from the Viking Age frequently features him regaling the einherjar, the dead who dwell in Valhalla, and welcoming recently deceased heroes into their midst. One Eddic poem depicts him as having runes carved on his tongue.
