One of the Bay areas most interesting bands, BOTANIST is excited to announce its sixth sequential release. Titled VI: Flora, this 11-song full length album was was once again recorded by Otrebor in The Verdant Realm and mastered by Jack Shirley at Atomic Garden and is scheduled for an August 11th release, once again through San Franciscos Flenser Records. VI: Flora sees Botanist continuing his story from the perspective of a crazed man of science who lives in self-imposed exile, as far away from Humanity and its crimes against Nature as possible. In his sanctuary of fantasy and wonder, which he calls the Verdant Realm, he surrounds himself with plants and flowers, finding solace in the company of the Natural world, and envisioning the destruction of man. There, seated upon his throne of Veltheimia, Botanist’s chronological sixth full-length record is a progression from the misanthropic masterplans of the destruction of mankind at the hands of plants as detailed on the project’s last two albums, 2012’s “III: Doom in Bloom” and 2013’s “IV: Mandragora.” Instead, “VI: Flora” focuses rather on the wondrous beauty of the plants themselves through a gauzy haze of dreamlike sound, with the voice of The Botanist acting as spectral underpinning to the reverie. Experimental, dulcimer-infused black metal par excellence.
