Sophia, Arcana and Empusae join to form Onus and launch ‘Proslambanomenos’ album – listen to the previews

Here’s a release you definitely have to check out, out on Cyclic Law: “Proslambanomenos” by Onus. Onus is the new joint project from the master minds behind Sophia, Arcana and Empusae. Peter Bjärgö and Nicolas ‘Sal-Ocin’ Van Meirhaeghe’s long term friendship culminated in this unique collaborative project which is based on recordings created by Peter over some years. Nicolas then worked to transform them into a symbiosis of both musician’s respective projects.
The album is available in an edition of just 600 copies, in a 4 panel over sized sleeve. You can order the album directly from Cyclic Law. The albums has 6 tracks which you can preview below.

More people read Side-Line than ever, and there is still no paywall and no advertising. Readers pay for it instead - from $5 a month.
Why we ask
Advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations we have not put up a paywall, and we refuse to add annoying advertising, so we need to ask for your help. Side-Line’s independent journalism takes time, money and hard work to produce, and we do it to push the artists we like, who are equally fighting to survive.

Chief editor of Side-Line – which basically means I spend my days wading through a relentless flood of press releases from labels, artists, DJs, and zealous correspondents. My job? Strip out the promo nonsense, verify what’s actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void. Outside the news filter bubble, I’m all in for quality sushi and helping raise funds for Ukraine’s ongoing fight against the modern-day axis of evil. Besides music I’m also an SEO and AI content flow specialist and have an interest in everything finance from stocks to crypto. There is music in everything!
