The Remembering

he fictitious band met during a thunderstorm above Lake Titicaca, inside the megalithic ruins of Tiwanaku. There, they claimed to hear the voice of Viracocha, god of creation, speaking through the stone. According to myth (and perhaps acid), the members became musically enlightened during a group hypnosis experiment. They experienced a shared vision of a civilization that predated history, a society of light, sound, and ritual that used music to pass on truth across incarnations. The three awoke speaking in chords, drawing musical notes, and writing songs from their visions.
