Bedlam Pariah has released Arkham, a new orchestral-industrial album inspired by the stories, locations, and unsettling atmosphere of H.P. Lovecraft.
The music began as a collection of works created for CueForge, where each piece was designed to support immersive storytelling, tabletop role-playing games, and scenes shaped by cosmic horror. As the collection developed, it became clear that the pieces also formed a larger musical journey—one that could stand on its own as a complete album.
Composed by A.P. DeVaney and UnKill Rick, Arkham blends cinematic orchestration, industrial textures, dark ambient sound, and ritualistic atmosphere. Its nine tracks explore familiar corners of Lovecraftian fiction, including Innsmouth, Dagon, The Music of Erich Zann, and more . . .
Rather than retelling the stories directly, the album focuses on their atmosphere: isolation, forbidden knowledge, ancient forces, deteriorating sanity, and the feeling that something immense is waiting just beyond human understanding.
The full track list includes:
“Innsmouth” “Dagon” “The Music of Erich Zann” “The Color Out of Space” “Rats in the Walls” “Arkham Sanitarium” “Shadow Out of Time” “Pickman’s Model” “Summoning”
Arkham is available now for streaming and high-quality download through Bandcamp.
