Hymns from the Hills was self-recorded, purportedly without the use of professional studio equipment. The songs were subsequently mixed by Jonah Falco (F*cked Up, Career Suicide) and mastered by Arthur Rizk (Power Trip, Blood Incantation).
Frontman, lyricist and guitarist Mac Kennedy comments on “Eidolon”:
“‘Eidolon’ is about being stuck in a broken reality, a cog in a fate-machine doomed to play out the same cursed loop until it fully breaks down. The ones who had the power to affect change have abandoned the scene. Their phantoms loom down in quiet disapproval of the disaster that slowly plays out beneath– Grim reminders of what could have, but will not be.”
