Eons more than just an album of interludes or ambient scores, “ Saurian Apocalypse” is a shining advancement in the Saurian series, and the most dynamic, detailed KARL SANDERS solo release yet. A wealth of musical growth and refinement, both in Sanders’ guitar technique and compositional development, is strikingly evident. Eduardo Lucciani, one of very few survivors of mankind’s self-destruction, who descends into madness after discovering the violent horrors occurring at the hands of the Saurian Masters.Įmphasized by unique instruments like the baglama saz (Turkish lute), Ancient Egyptian Anubis Sistrum, Dumbek (Middle Eastern goblet drum), glissentar and gongs, the album’s score weaves cinematic auras and deep grooves, accented by the tribal percussive stylings of original NILE drummer Pete Hammoura and returning Saurian vocalist Mike Breazeale. “ Saurian Apocalypse” arrives 13 years after the release of its predecessor, 2009’s Saurian Exorcisms, and nearly 20 after 2004’s equally lauded Saurian Meditation. The musical and lyrical themes on the album detail the vexing fictional journey of Dr. Super appreciation and thanks to my Metal Brothers Mahmud, Josh and Xaay.”

I am really happy with how the video turned out. Despite his busy schedule, Mahmud found time to do some incredible, mind bending interpretations of the song via animating Xaay’s Saurian album artwork. It eventually turned out, however, that Mahmud was also totally on board for a video collaboration. I really enjoyed his guitar work, and had hoped to also have Mahmud play guest Oud and Saz on the Saurian album, but his busy schedule and the pandemic worked against us. I was fortunate to get to know Mahmud when we worked together on the Serapeum project – Nader Sadek, Mahmud , Derek Roddy and I collaborating in Cairo. The video has a super immersive vibe, really melding with the mood of the song. “The Disembodied” video has original artwork by Saurian/ NILE artist Xaay, animations by Mahmud Gecekesu, and additional FX and titles by Joshua Ward. The psychedelic, mind melting video was a labor of love by personal friends of mine. “I am very happy to present music fans with a new video for “The Disembodied Yet Slither Among Us”.
