About the Project
Ancient devotion. Modern metal. No sanctimony.
Why Metal?
Scripture is full of violence, awe, exile, judgment, mercy, despair, and transcendence. Metal is one of the few modern genres capable of holding all of that emotional weight without flattening it.
Power metal in particular allows for grandeur without cynicism—heroism without naivety. It is uniquely suited to texts that wrestle openly with God, mortality, covenant, and consequence.
Sources & Structure
Each major collection within Sagas of the Infinite focuses on a specific body of scripture, adapted song by song, passage by passage.
The current releases draw primarily from the biblical Psalms, organized into traditional Psalters and rendered with minimal paraphrase. Where adaptation occurs, it serves meter, emphasis, or musical structure—not reinterpretation.
Future volumes expand outward to other sacred texts, treated with the same discipline: fidelity first, aesthetics second.
What This Is Not
This project is not an attempt to modernize scripture, soften it, or make it palatable. It is also not an exercise in irony, parody, or genre shock.
Listeners are not expected to agree with the theology, share the faith tradition, or accept the texts as authoritative.
They are only asked to listen honestly.
Listening Approach
Some songs are meant to be experienced as standalone tracks. Others function best as part of a larger arc, where repetition, variation, and escalation mirror the structure of the source texts.
Lyrics are often presented alongside their scriptural origins so that listeners can see exactly what has been preserved, adapted, or emphasized.
What Is Sagas of the Infinite?
Sagas of the Infinite is a long-form musical project that reimagines sacred texts as modern metal—without dilution, irony, or moralizing gloss.
These songs are not sermons. They are not worship music in disguise. They are attempts to take ancient scripture seriously enough to let it speak in a language of distortion, speed, tension, grief, fury, and hope.
The goal is preservation of intent, not preservation of style.
