About Me


Taking its name from the author of the Necronomicon, the dark musical concoctions that Alhazred brews in its underground lair embrace elements of heavy metal and art rock. Groove, melody and the mighty riff reign supreme while lyrical inspiration comes from the work of the greatest dark fantasists of the last two centuries.
Camilla: You, sir, should unmask.
Stranger: Indeed?
Cassilda: Indeed, it's time. We have all laid aside disguise but you
Stranger: I wear no mask.
Camilla: (Terrified, aside to Cassilda.) No mask? No mask!
-- The King in Yellow, Act I, Scene 2d
Still we murmur of the King and the Pallid Mask
