Death's Head by Thomas Ragsdale

My latest EP is split into three parts, sharing the same ideals associated with a Death's Head Moth : mystery, darkness/light and finally - transformation.
Crafted during early Spring I set about writing music that carries a great deal of symbolism and an EP that reveals itself over the course of a few tracks. I had this particular music inside of me for a while, and sitting down with a few choice instruments during late night studio sessions gave me an outlet. 'Needles Of Stone' is music set to a spell, an initiation spell to be exact. It's the welcoming of a new witch. 'Wandering Spider' is deep & brooding, but it glistens with minimalist beats and cinematic synth lines. 'It Froze Me' is just two chords and there's nothing else to really say about it. It's about seeing your life flash in front of you in a wave of panic, but you come out the other side.

A Death's Head Moth is associated with the most sinister of connotations. It is possible that if you see the moth it's a spirit guide trying to teach you the mysteries of the occult and that some of the unknown aspects in your life are about to be revealed.
