The eight sonically and lyrically immersive songs on Alunea have set yet another high-water mark for the dynamic lineup. Known as the progenitors of the “deathgaze” genre, that descriptor is evolving as KARDASHEV continually explores and pushes boundaries. “Words you could use to describe our music are ‘atmospheric, progressive, emotional, dynamic, and contrast,” explains drummer Sean Lang. “Our music attempts to sonically portray the emotions of anger and sorrow which creates a palpable but natural dynamic contrast.” Music has always been a universal language, but KARDASHEV creates their own lyrical language, adding depth and meaning.

Alunea is a direct sequel to the events of The Almanac and picks up right where the song "Beyond Sun And Moon" leaves off. Garrett elaborates, “The first releases in The KARDASHEV Mythos were broad and conceptual, but they’ve morphed into something more granular and specific. Alunea tells the story of the main character from The Almanac meeting a being created in the song ‘Continuum’ from Excipio. Their meeting is a philosophical examination of where responsibility and duty intersect. We don't try to answer those questions, but we do examine them deeply in this album.”

Alunea, which includes guest appearances by vocalist Erin from the band Genital Shame on "Speak Silence" and Pawel JJ Przybysz who played duduk, an Armenian woodwind instrument, on "We Could Fold The Stars,” and artwork by Karl E., was mixed and mastered by Zack Ohren engineer (Entheos, Machine Head, Demon King, Fallujah).
