THE MUSIC
CINEMATIC METAL, inspired by DARK MYTHOLOGY:
HOMERIK’s self-titled debut album is an opening statement to a world of excitement that is fresh and unique to the Metal community.
All original and full of raw and worldly influence, this experimental album is merely the tip of the iceberg representing a much bigger picture; in which music, art and literature come together and join forces to create something epic and worthy to stand the test of time. This is what we call “The Homerik Standard”.
The full manifestation of this philosophy is present in the creation of Homerik’s newest project: The Circle of Dead Children, the sequel to the first album you see here. In our first album, we take you on a journey within your mind to discover the darkness of humanity and introduce the beginning of our epic, A Song of the Night: Part I. Now, it is time to unfold the makings of this grandiose, or rather, homeric tale.
IN THEIR WORDS…
“This album is as ambitious, creative, and genre-defying as any I have come across within the broad church of metal.”
- Stuart Wain (PureGrainAudio) [CA]
“In short, Homerik create a brand of metal music they can call their own. That in itself stands as a feat among the oceans of debut releases this world has seen.”
- Mike (The Circle Pit) [USA]
“ASTONISHING… ONE HELL OF AN ADVENTURE!”
- Steve Göldby (Metal Talk) [UK]

The Story
And so it begins...

THE LITERATURE
DARK BEGINNINGS…
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, Morgana, in the nightmarish ballad.
Evil caresses Morgana, granting her demonic power in her darkest hour. Her immediate wish is to see the grim reality of her son’s fate. Painted by David Millgate.
The story of The Circle of Dead Children takes place in Germany during WWII. Dante, our protagonist is the incestual son of Morgana and her father. Her father was abusive and she conceived, but was too weak of character to run away from his heinous deeds. Ashamed, Dante ran away from home to join the Nazi regime at a young age, indoctrinated by the code of the Führer. The story begins somewhere in the middle of the war, when Morgana wakes to the sirens of an oncoming blitz near Dresden as her father dies from tuberculosis before the bombs go off. In their final moments, the devil reaches out to Morgana and offers her everlasting peace in exchange for her blood and kin. The devil has a special interest in Dante, unbeknownst to Morgana.
Dante dies in Normandy and falls into oblivion as he enters the next realm: the gates of Hell. His journey into the Inferno is a reflection of his Nazi-favored ideas and decorated in that theme throughout his adventure. Along with the album, Homerik will release this tale in the format of a novel paired with jaw-dropping, hellish artwork, like the one you see painted by David Millgate, illustrator of the famous Judge Dredd comics.
The story gets right down to the nitty-gritty. An adventure through the perilous Inferno with music and art to accompany Dante's experience towards redemption for his sins and the divine process towards salvation.
