And here is the Live Revelations CD Unboxing video! Tomorrow is Bandcamp Friday (the day in which Bandcamp waives its revenue share) – so I've timed this very well indeed. If you like the look of this exquisite CD, buy it from my Bandcamp tomorrow, and I'll receive 100% of the profit – and I would also be very grateful! (Link in bio) #prog #progrock #progressiverock

VIDEO FOR „THE SPIRAL“ OUT NOW! Here we go with „The Spiral“, the second single and video from our upcoming Album „The Phantom Void“. The song combines new elements with typical LDC trademarks in a concentrated form. The new video starts where „A Secret Place“ left off, continuing the nightmarish journey of our protagonist.

𝐂𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐄𝐱𝐢𝐬𝐭 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐝 Out February 20th on @majesticmountainrecords Presave link in bio This year marks 15 years of Craneium. To celebrate, we wanted to do something special. We’ve revisited Ceasing to Exist — originally released on our debut album Explore the Void (via @ripplemusic in 2017). Over the years, the song has become a live staple, and the energy it creates every night made us feel it deserved a proper studio version that captures how it really sounds on stage. Recorded live at @v.r.music Additional guitars by Andreas Österlund Droning synthesizers by Lari Oksala Mixed and mastered by @kallelilja at @welfaresounds And brought to life visually with stunning reimagined artwork by @mangobeard. 15 years in and the void is still expanding ❤️ #heavypsych #stonerrock #doom #majesticmountainrecords #ripplemusic
