Death Ingloria is an epic space odyssey that catalogues and cherishes the death throes of the Human Race. Death Ingloria crosses artistic formats and genres to take you by the throat and shake your immortal soul.
‘The Wolf Onboard‘ will be released worldwide on Thursday 16th November 2017. Written by Galina Rin (Death Ingloria). The album has been mixed and mastered by Jamie King (Between The Buried And Me, Motionless In White). Drum programming for ‘The Escape’, ‘As Dark Knights Rise’ and ‘Silent Running Engaged’ was done by Acle Kaheny (Tesseract) .
The accompanying comic is scripted by Hilary Robinson (Medivac 318 – 2000AD, Zippy Couriers) and illustrated by Nigel Dobbyn ( Medivac 318 – 2000AD, Sonic The Hedgehog).
The Wolf Onboard is a Science Fiction story told across seven songs, a seven page comic book, seven still photographs and a seven part animated series. The comic is the narration of the story, the songs the voices of the characters.
It’s an age old story really
Girl becomes morally aware.
Girl creates a neurovirus pandemic.
Girl wipes out most of Humanity.
Humanity hands over control to a super computer.
Humanity continues down an ever increasing spiral of death and self destruction.
Humanity escapes Planet Earth in an attempt to save what’s left of its crippled hobbling existence.
Humanity fails.
The Universe continues blissfully unaware and unaffected.
I’m not going to lie.
Everybody dies.
You probably already suspected that anyway.
Galina Rin, an almost real human and Okami, an A.I. unit, come together as Death Ingloria to explore Humanity’s depths, it’s heights, and its inevitable conclusions through music, video and illustrated comics.
Soaring vocal hooks combine with sharpened riffs that journey through towering rock anthems to tender moments of sonic intricacies. Twisting with emotional punk fury on the way, these seven scenes of Humanity’s fate are seamlessly blended with the stunning artwork and visuals resulting in one of this year’s biggest feasts for the senses.
To celebrate the release of Death Ingloria’s debut album and comic book ‘The Wolf Onboard‘ the New Cross Inn, London will house a day and night of artworks and live performances.
During the creation of The Wolf Onboard, Death Ingloria collaborated with seven independent artists to create seven separate music videos to promote the project.
Throughout the day a free exhibition will be showcasing artworks from the contributing artists, the comic book and showing the first six music videos created during the projects build up.
The gallery exhibition will also host the first public showing of two original A3 pages from the MEDIVAC 318 comic strip, published in 2000AD Prog 639, August 1989 (from Hilary Robinson’s private collection).
Then as night descends Alix Fox takes over to host the proceedings which will see performance artist Cynth Icorn film a live music video for Death Ingloria’s song ‘The Anomic Life’ completing the first series of seven music videos.
Death Ingloria will then take the stage to perform, for the first time, The Wolf Onboard in its entirety, as it is meant to be seen.
Nigel Dobbyn (2000AD) will be on hand to sketch during the event.
