Vyormouth - The Music Of Liminal Spaces

Excerpt from the full album "Liminal Spaces" by Vyormouth, published by ZeroK: https://zerok.bandcamp.com/album/limi... Liminal spaces refer to transitional or in-between areas that exist on the threshold between two distinct states or environments. These spaces are characterized by ambiguity, uncertainty, and a sense of being neither here nor there. Liminality can be experienced physically, such as in doorways, corridors, or airports, as well as psychologically, in moments of transition or transformation. The concept of liminality was originally developed by anthropologist Arnold van Gennep and later expanded upon by anthropologist Victor Turner. They used it to describe the middle stage of a rite of passage, where individuals are neither fully part of their old identity nor fully integrated into their new identity. However, the concept of liminality has since been applied more broadly to various aspects of human experience, including physical spaces. Liminal spaces often evoke a sense of unease or strangeness in people. This feeling can be attributed to the psychological phenomenon known as the uncanny. The uncanny refers to something that is familiar yet strange, ordinary yet unsettling. It is a state of cognitive dissonance that arises when we encounter something that challenges our expectations or blurs the boundaries between the known and the unknown. In liminal spaces, the uncanny can manifest in different ways. The ambiguity of these spaces can create a sense of disorientation and make us question our perceptions. The absence of clear markers or familiar cues can lead to a feeling of being lost or disconnected. Additionally, the transitory nature of liminal spaces can evoke a sense of anticipation or suspense, as we await what lies ahead or reflect on what we have left behind. Vyormouth music is a clear manifestation of music as representation of liminal spaces, both physical as well as psychological. Listening to the long tracks of the album “Liminal Spaces” we experience a state of mental disorientation in which our brain not only perceives the ambiguity of slow transitions and potential eerie apparitions, but also reflects about our own identity as part of an uncertain reality. ZeroK is proud to present the mysterious and unsettling debut album of Vyormouth. Music by Vyormouth Published by ZeroK Mastered by Raffaele Pezzella (Sonologyst) © 2023.
