DANTE’S INFERNO, REINVENTED.

“Heaven... sheds no light here. God... is not present.”

- Homerik: The Circle of Dead Children - Chapter IX, The Black Mass

Fascinating artist Homerik is the brainchild of visionary, Mad Composer, Ken Candelas -a twenty-first-century architect of the extraordinary. Homerik is a Philosophical Metal opera that reimagines the classic tale of Dante’s Inferno, set against the harrowing backdrop of World War II. With the masterful narration of Jonathan Kruk, the musical prowess of Elizabeth de Deus (Candelas), guitar work from Jason Stallworth, and pulsating basslines from Nic Z, Homerik sets a new standard in musical storytelling.

"This is not just an album for metal fans; it is a cultural artifact that invites all who dare to listen, to embark on a journey through the inferno and beyond.”

This project is more a fusion of art, literature, and sound than just a musical project thus giving it such a timeless nature. Homerik’s commitment to quality over quantity and their dedication to creating an art form unlike anything the Metal community has ever seen sets them apart as true innovators. Their work is a magnum opus—a creation meant to endure through the ages.

"Godless; A Song of the Night, Part II" premiered at Metal Injection, in a July 29th post entitled Homerik Goes Full On Metal Opera With New Single "Godless; A Song Of The Night, Part II.”

"Homerik is showing off their upcoming metal opera with the premiere of a new single 'Godless; A Song of the Night, Part II'. The song takes on after 'A Song of the Night: Part I', the Homerik prologue that explores the relationships of Morgana, the mother of Dante.”
