Descent

Queer album art.

Descent is an album by LorD and Master. The album explores escapism, a descent into madness and redemption.

Concept

When making this album, it was decided that following the release of the previous album, Queer, the previous more concept-based albums and the fact it had been two years since the release of Form, a more standard LorD and Master album would be on the cards. Descent was, therefore, written and produced to fulfil that role; an assortment of songs that follow a vague narrative, but are also completely standalone. This is far less concept-based than the previous offerings. The design of this album's artwork shows a rocky ceiling with a rope hanging down and a shaft of light shining down into a cave half-filled with murky water.
