“an excerpt from ‘Let There Be Light’, taken from the new Sendelica double album’ Requiem For Mankind’ (on sale early December), which brings their series of ‘Mankind’ releases to an epic conclusion.” – Fruits De Mer Records
“Requiem For Mankind£” is the final instalment of a series of studio albums by Space Rock/Psych Rock/Ambient Electronics band Sendelica examining Man‘s relationship with religion, magic, myths, himself and our planet.
The series started with “And Man Created God” which looked at man’s relationship with religion, followed by “One Man’s Man” which examined the history of Homo Sapiens, where did we come from and more importantly where are we headed?
“Man, Myth & Magic” explored man’s myths and was intended to be the final part of a trilogy but, after completing the recordings, band leader Pete Bingham felt there was more to say regarding the future of mankind – and this led to “Requiem For Mankind” – the final part in this series.
Pete Bingham expalins all (or some)…: “When we finished the Trilogy of albums about mankind, I had a few niggling doubts, a few remaining questions…… How will it all end for Mankind?, and for the Planet Earth? These niggles grew and grew and eventually led to the recording of the 4th installment of the albums about mankind.
‘Requiem For Mankind’ was born out of necessity, a quest for answers where no answers existed! Who knows where Mankind is headed? Who knows the future for Planet Earth…….
What is certain though is that the core of Sendelica was again ably aided and abetted by a couple of guests in the form of Finlands finest Santtu Laakso on keyboards (Chaos) and Calli on sensual vocals (Requiem For The Planet)“
A double album, with long instrumental tracks, pressed on colour vinyl, with printed inners, poster and a die-cut gatefold sleeve, “Requiem For Mankind” will look almost as good as it sounds.
