The name of the project is borrowed from the supercontinent that will possibly arise in 250 million years: In it, all of today’s continents will merge into one and all territorial borders will be overcome. The sound of the band already anticipates this distant future and combines musical influences from all over the world – collected during my extensive musical research trips.

The recently released second album „Camino a Mictlán“ is dedicated to the Mexican „Día de Los Muertos“, a tribute to life.
