Lingüa Brütallica - Episode 38: Louis Thierry of Parius (Pennsylvania, USA)

Lingua Brutallica

In this episode, we speak with Louis Thierry, vocalist and lyricist of Parius, whose lyrics work to transport their listeners or readers to a place beyond the world they know - most recently, into outer space. Though Louis' lyrics have previously drawn inspiration from various media, including the Ender’s Game novels, Eldritch horror, and Greek mythology, his latest work traverses new ground as his lyrics disseminate a "signal heard throughout space" that is of his own making. Louis' lyrics tell captivating stories of adventure and (occasionally humour-laced) terror, yet he maintains that in his view that the needs of lyrics should always be subordinate to the needs of a song, and what's said is often less important than how it's said. After all, he says "sometimes it's not about what's said, it's how it makes you feel".
