Homerik

At the helm of Homerik is our Mad Composer and twenty-first century architect supernal, Ken Candelas. The demons and hellish landscapes of Candelas’ story are conveyed by the twisted mind of graphic artist and illustrator, David ‘Max’ Millgate, and brought to life through the spoken word narrated by master storyteller, Jonathan Kruk. Homerik brings the classic adventure of Dante’s Inferno to life with a new perspective in a cinematic Philosophical Metal opera featuring a Nazi soldier named Dante who finds himself deep within the conflicts of World War II, begging for forgiveness. The Mad Composer brings this new musical landscape coupled with the addition of David’s imaginative artworks and Jonathan’s eloquent narration to unearth a magnum opus. The mesmerizing vocal work of Elizabeth Candelas, the enthralling guitar work of Jason Stallworth, and the heavy basslines of Nic Z elevate the album to new musical heights. Homerik brings a message of quality over quantity and, above all else, an art form unlike anything ever seen before in the Metal community. The feats of Homerik are established by its three essential pillars: music, art, and literature. Taking after the world’s most revered masters, Homerik’s goal is to create a legacy that lasts many lifetimes.
