They are informed by Weird Tales-style literature, Victorian ghost stories, Surrealism, Expressionism, Symbolism, Decadence,Parnassianism, Gothic Romanticism, cosmicism, isolationism, theology, occult philosophy and obscure areas of biblical and classical mythology. These are songs of the strange and supernatural.
