Algol by Ajna

A new studio double-album from Chris F; the mastermind behind 'Ajna'.

In Astronomy, Algol is known as the bright multiple star in the constellation of Perseus, also known as 'The Demon Star' or 'The Ghoul'.

However, Algol has an entirely different meaning in Occult terms. According to Kenneth Grant's "Beyond the Mauve Zone", Algol is considered a form of altered consciousness between terrestrial and extraterrestrial dimensions, a dimension that is beyond the Mauve Zone, an access to unknown alien realms deep within the universe.

“Algol represents a specific state of consciousness on the threshold of the Mauve Zone with an Astro-occult body not identical with the star of the same name….a two-way conduit between terrestrial and extraterrestrial dimensions of consciousness…” ~ Kenneth Grant (Beyond The Mauve Zone)

This album focuses on the mystery behind the dual concept of Algol.

DCD comes in a full colour 6-panel digipak, strictly limited to 200 copies.

REVIEWS:

'Ajna has created a fascinating concoction on Algol, one that in my humble opinion surpasses all his previous work, and I'm very curious which direction his sound will continue to develop in. In the meantime, Algol is sure to provide plenty of food for thought over repeated listens.' ~ (For The Innermost)
