Primordial Reverie Debut Concept Album metal artist Cepheidae Variable

Primordial Reverie
11.7.2025

Cepheidae Variable is a progressive metal artist hailing from BC, Canada. Their music consists of technical riff based writing, with melodic leads, odd time signatures, orchestral arrangements, and evocative soundscapes.

Heavily influenced by bands such as Dream Theater, Haken, Intervals, Wintersun, and Caligula’s Horse. Each song aims to tell a story through instrumentation.

Their debut album Primordial Reverie developed from a concept of establishing different biomes and acts with the absence of lyrics. This gives each song it’s own unique feel, while retaining established motifs throughout for a cohesive experience. Each track builds upon the previous, growing in impact.
