III. Vengeance

"One journey ends, another begins..."

The galaxy is in shambles.

Despite the authoritarian rule of the vile Authority meeting an explosive and definitive end, peace and cooperation among the trillions of survivors remains elusive and hard-fought. Millions of separate factions all vie for power in an attempt to carve out their own quadrant in the stars.

A tenuous and delicate truce, set it motion by the extraordinarily powerful Angels of Aldebaran, is the only thing keeping this cold war from turning blazing hot at the blink of an eye. And all the while, the Angels themselves have been discretely consolidating their power.

Meanwhile, Althaea and Synthia, two rogue pilots and lovers who lead the charge in the Stellar Showdown that brought the Authority's regime to end, have been exploring across the cosmos in search of those who need help as their worlds collapse around them. With the assistance of Pleiades Squad, a small faction of rebellious fighters who bear the names of the Seven Sisters, they've done all they can to keep the violence at bay.

However, it is becoming increasingly clear that their efforts may ultimately be in vain, and as the two of them set out to explore the ruins of an ancient seedship, they are about to uncover a plot that will ultimately decide the fate of trillions and challenge the status quo of all that there is...

They are about to uncover... "The Vampires of Vulcan"!



A direct sequel album to 2024's "The Estrogenesis Initiative", this new album, that consists of one part audio drama and two parts crushing progressive metal, continues the story of the galaxy's most powerful couple, Althaea and Synthia, as the two women embark on another journey that will put them through their most arduous test yet. Likewise, this album is a culmination of everything I have learned since my debut release and I am extremely proud of the final result. The mix is clearer, the songwriting is far more ambitious, and the story I'm committed to telling is going places I had only once dreamed possible. Thank you for joining me on this adventure.

"Strap in
We're goin' for a ride"

This album is also a sequel to my debut novel, "Undead Flowers", which tells the story of how Violet came to be a vampire long before humanity took to the stars. Those who have read the book will certainly notice more than a few details that have carried over, and I am currently writing two sequels which will bridge the gap into where she and her wives are now.
