“In modern times the shawms and loud trumpets generally banish the sober fiddles from the feasts, and the young girls dance eagerly to the loud noise, like hinds, shaking their buttocks womanishly and rudely.” (Conrad von Megenberg, 1349)

For good and for bad, the Middle Ages has long served Modernity as a surface for projection. In their first album, Vox Vulgaris engaged with the political implications of modern medievalism. In contrast, their new album explores the world that was lost when the groove was killed to make space for harmony.

Early Music for Late Humanity was recorded in the winter of 2023–2024, in collaboration with two distinguished producers coming from very different musical backgrounds: DJ Clea (Clea Herlöfsson) and Fagge (Daniel Fagerström). It is both more and less medieval than anything previously released by Vox Vulgaris. The sound has expanded in new directions, with the first half of the album presenting more up-tempo, dance-oriented tracks. Those familiar with Vox Vulgaris will note the polyrhythmic percussion, and the fierce sound of buisines (medieval straight trumpets). The other half drifts toward the psychedelic trance, incantation, and enchantment. The haunting saxophone of Oscar Carls makes a guest appearance on “Angelus Novus”.
