This is the full debut album of Bisclaveret duo from Gdansk, Poland. An ambiguous title already suggests that it's going to be a journey into a human (?) mind. It seems that, apart from their passion for music and literature, Maciej "Dragos" Mehring (vocals and lyrics) and Radosław 'Thorn' Murawski (music), have been recently holding a great fascination for occultism, magic and its influence on the human psyche. Two years of their work have resulted in a concept album entitled "Psyche noMine". 6 compositions, or 53 minutes, are an integrated piece, through which the listener is guided by the singer's voice. One may perceive the voice as a madman's monologue, but - at the same time, it conducts the listener to the last seconds of this record. Taking lyrics into consideration, "Psyche noMine" explores the themes of occultism and the inside of the human psyche. Even though he may often deny the existence of magic, not wanting to see some of its effects, a man is still a magical animal. He depends on magic. Then, he escapes from his nature and at the same time he gets lost in the real world that surrounds him. He keeps loosing his soul; Bisclaveret invites the listener to take part in a ritual of coming back to the nature. Making use of the stylistics of the theatre of horror, Bisclaveret asks a very important question of modern times: do you know where your soul is?
