"The Dissolution Orphans" chronicles the twelve year creation of Sons of Perdition's Dissolution Trilogy. The trilogy began with 2007’s hellfire-and-brimstone-spewing The Kingdom is on Fire, continued with 2010’s bleak Psalms for the Spiritually Dead, and reached its nihilistic conclusion with 2013's Trinity, which No Depression called "an album that is to fringe music what Arthur Rimbaud’s “Season in Hell” is to classic literature and what William Butler Yeats’ “The Second Coming” is to poetics."
"The Dissolution Orphans" isn't an album in its own right. It's a history and a chance for the listener to trepan the skull of Zebulon Whatley and peer at the worms writhing within. This is a notebook, bound in flesh and penned in blood. The quality of the recordings varies greatly since they were never intended for public consumption. There are audio issues with some of the oldest recordings. Consider these hisses and pops the punctuation in this hellish volume.
With the exception of Simon Broke's double bass on "The Shadow of the Undertaker", everything here is written and performed by Zebulon Whatley.
