NEPTUNIAN HORIZON

Neptunian Horizon is Montalk's solo project. He learned guitar at age 16 and has been recording since 1997. All songs are now recorded in his home studio. Vocals, bass, electric guitar, and acoustic are real, the rest are virtual instruments. Many melodies heard on "Descent" and featured in future albums were first heard in dreams... After studying physics and electrical engineering for four years, he left college to pursue more independent research. His interests include spirituality, alienology, fringe science, and composing music... Montalk is currently working on the follow-up album titled "Ascent," which explores a more progressive, euphoric, melodic, mystical, and sylvan direction. Its style includes power metal, medieval folk, symphonic, and progressive rock. He's also recording a side project called Thiocryptos which is an epic doom metal concept with black metal influences that revolves around arcane, esoteric, occult, and gnostic themes.
