Robert teams up with legendary Belgian sound artist Nicolas Van Meirhaeghe and deliver The Erosion of Innocence, an album of ritual and analog degradation.
At the end of the last cycle.
When the breath of iron ceased,
and the last sigh coiled into silence,
we had already vanished.
Only spectres remain — the fading imprint of a species undone by its own reflection.
Ruins, tepid and rust-laced, gnawed by time and thought.
Bones scorched beneath the ash of forgotten empires,
echoing with the memory of pride.
Innocence was never born into safety.
She was devoured before her first breath, crushed beneath the heel of hunger,
mocked by power,
offered in sacrifice to the god of ego.
The world was not ended —
it swallowed itself in ritual silence.
For mankind was never kind.
Wrought from the sinew of the beast,
nursed on the breast of war,
cradled in the shadow of its own delusions.
And when the dusk descends —
no lament, no witness,
only the whisper of innocence unmade,
and the echoes of tears that never reached the earth.
"Erosion of Innocence" is the psalm of this unraveling.
A liturgy for the ruins of thought,
a dirge for the carcasses of ideals.
Each note tolls like a buried bell,
each silence howls like a nameless god, a
s the species turns inward,
gazing upon the abyss it once called progress.
Written, produced and performed by Robert C. Kozletsky and Nicolas Van Meirhaeghe
