I was never born. I came after. Falling through an ebony sky, observed by an ivory moon. A nameless, shapeless void then. Until I slipped into the first screaming mouth I happened upon and filled every space of it as water would. I am your soul. I am the universe inside of you. I am all of time swirled together and happening at once. I am everything you’ve ever felt and ever will feel and everyone you love and ever will. I am a star. A light that stays within you. At times you can glimpse me in your eyes or when you open your mouth. a celestial body. Everyone is.

I dream of galaxies

OF THE MUSES: first single and video from "Senhal"

Welcome to the decadent and intimate OF THE MUSES universe with "I" the first single taken from "Senhal", the debut album out on My Kingdom Music on November 3, 2023. For the song the talented artist Giuseppe Briffa has edited an official video that you can see at https://youtu.be/PFd3OVHWgXQ

OF THE MUSES, a one-woman Blackgaze act headed by multi-instrumentalist Cristina Rombi, sing songs of grief and pain.  Musically, the Blackgaze can be considered the right place where her music lives, but elements from Doom, Black Metal, Post Metal and also Dreampop also play a quite prominent part in her unique sound that follows the steps of Alcest, Myrkur, Woods Of Desolation. The result is an intimate, decadent and exclusive Art that will allow OF THE MUSES to enter your soul in a furiously deep and confessional way like no one has ever done.

Use My Voice

[foryouallforyou]

I’ve heard you fucking!

I’ve heard you fucking

In those old corridors 

at our old college

You hated so much -

And I know your body almost

As well as I know you,

Your stomach is so strong 

It could kill a man -

But I remember your eyes best

When you were sitting with your father

In the ASNAC common room,

Like a girl child in a woman’s body,

All knitted together,

Green and yellow grey, 

That old piercing scar, 

And that mandala on your wall -

And the way you rub your lips with your finger

When you are talking about something

Stressful.

And the way your feet are neatly

Arranged

So sexy-prim and proper,

My little mouse!

My mackerel for tea,

And I loved you first

When you understood the funny things

In the fresco without me having to explain,

And you drove me mad when you 

Used to scream in my stuffed-up ears 

WD 40!

And spin me around outside the Pizza Hut, 

Oh you ran so wild in Cambridge

And I'm so sorry I ever tried to stop you 

From being yourself

(That was my shyness)

Do you remember their faces when I told them about the burial of my dead dog

At that dinner I dragged you to?

We often had to leave early in those days

You were always the friend who I felt I could be bold with

And complain!

When really I loved 

waiting for you in Boots

As you poured over the options 

from your points card, 

I hid behind different makeup aisles 

to make you laugh 

by popping up suddenly with a silly face.

And I Love to have tea with you

And I Love your notebooks too

And I love your crazy family 

because they

Made 

you.

Versione in italiano alla fine

OF THE MUSES: the existential universe of her sophomore album

"Underheavens— Of Blood, Ghosts and Saltwater" is the evocative title to OF THE MUSES' new album. Cristina Rombi, mind and soul of the project, is now in Brussels, Belgium, to record the new album. The potent production of Opus Magnum Studio, ran by famed producer and musician Déhà (Slow, ex-Dropdead Chaos, Wolvennest among others) will definitively shape the sound of the Italian artist's newest endeavor.

If with "Senhal" Cristina Rombi ushered us into a world of poetry, anger and melancholy, for "Underheavens— Of Blood, Ghosts And Saltwater", the talented Italian multi-instrumentalist will take us into a very private and intimate universe equally full of pain, but painted with utterly vulnerable and existential tinges, no longer conveyed through the extremism of screams, blastbeats and distortions, but rather with impressive emotional depth and staggering transparency both in lyrical themes and musical delivery.

Explains Cristina: "While I'm still internally debating whether or not 'concept album' is an appropriate definition, I can definitely say there's a red thread weaving together the sonic and lyrical tapestry of this album. At its core, this is an album about addiction, illness and losing a parent to AIDS during the health crisis of the 80s/early 90s, back when HIV was still an irrevocable death sentence. But in a broader sense, it's also about breaking cycles, finding closure, the devastating consequences of dehumanization and erasure, reckoning with life and death and what to do with the time we're granted here on Earth. It's really important for me to get these songs and these stories out there and I hope you will find them worthy of your time and attention".

We are deeply proud of what is about to emerge and incredibly eager to share it with all of you. "Underheavens— Of Blood, Ghosts And Saltwater" will be released next spring on My Kingdom Music on CD, vinyl and digital; further details to be revealed soon.

Keep in mind: OF THE MUSES is cathartic, eclectic and emotional Art!

OF THE MUSES: l’universo esistenziale del suo secondo album

"Underheavens— Of Blood, Ghosts And Saltwater" è l'evocativo titolo del nuovo album di OF THE MUSES. Cristina Rombi, mente ed anima del progetto, è volata in Belgio, a Bruxelles, per registrare il nuovo album presso gli Opus Magnum Studio del grande produttore e musicista Déhà (Slow, ex-Dropdead Chaos, Wolvennest tra gli altri) il quale ha il compito di plasmare definitivamente il suono potente della nuova ceratura dell'artista italiana. Se con "Senhal" Cristina, ci aveva introdotto in un mondo di poesia, rabbia e malinconia, con "Underheavens— Of Blood, Ghosts And Saltwater", la talentuosa polistrumentista italiana ci accompagnerà in un universo molto intimo e personale altrettanto ricco di dolore, ma dipinto con tinte vulnerabili ed esistenziali, espresse non più attraverso l'estremismo di urla, blastbeat e distorsioni, ma con una impressionante profondità emotiva e tagliente trasparenza, sia nel tema trattato, che per come questo viene manifestato in Arte, musica e parole. Nelle parole di Cristina: "Anche se non ho ancora deciso se 'concept album' sia o meno una definizione appropriata, ciò che posso dire con certezza è che c'è un filo rosso che percorre l'intelaiatura musicale e concettuale di questo disco. Più di tutto, è un album che parla di malattia, dipendenze e del perdere un genitore a causa dell’AIDS durante l'epidemia degli anni ottanta e novanta, quando ancora questa patologia equivaleva a una vera e propria condanna a morte. Ma è anche un disco sull'accettazione, sull'interrompere i cicli, sulle conseguenze devastanti della deumanizzazione e dell'invisibilizzazione, sul rapportarsi con l'idea della morte e sull'uso del tempo che ci è concesso sulla Terra. È davvero importante per me condividere queste canzoni e queste storie, e spero le riterrete degne della vostra attenzione".

Siamo profondamente orgogliosi di quello che sta per emergere ed incredibilmente desiderosi di condividerlo con tutti voi."Underheavens— Of Blood, Ghosts And Saltwater" diverrà realtà la prossima primavera su My Kingdom Music in CD, vinile e digitale; ulteriori dettagli verranno rivelati presto. Tieni solo a mente che OF THE MUSES è Arte catartica, eclettica ed emotiva!

Have you found your Unicorn Space? I loved this @everodsky book about doing what lights you up and making the time and space for it literally and figuratively. This book is especially good for mothers and women with families but as a childless, self employed woman I too found bountiful support and joy from it! I’m always eager to hear what women are passionate about and this book shared a lot of inspiring stories. What would you do with uninterrupted time and space?? 🦄 📚 🎨 . . . #unicornspace #goodread #passion #hobbist #wfhm #wfh #sahm #identity #bookclub #femalevoices #femaleauthor #booksforwomen #identitycrisis #selfwmployeed #workfromhome #stayathomemom #personalgrowth #passionate #multipassionate #inspiringstories #inspiringwomen https://www.instagram.com/p/CkeENGrvOg4/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
