Sons of Clay
Myth forged in symphonic hard rock

Sons
of Clay

The gods made us out of clay.
We answered with fire.

The thesis

Two albums. One quarrel with heaven.

Sons of Clay take the oldest stories ever told and forge them into doom-weighted, choir-swept hard rock — heavy distorted guitars under orchestras, gritty voices trading lines with the dark.

The first record gathered the mortals who dared the gods, from Icarus to Prometheus. The second turned north, to the only myth where the gods themselves are doomed — and learn what mortals always knew. Everything ends.

Of Clay and Fire

Eleven tracks · the mortals who defied Olympus

“Better to blaze for a moment than crawl for a lifetime and die.”

  • I
    The war of gods and titans — ten orchestral minutes before a single word is sung.
  • II
    Icarus chooses the sun over the safe grey shore.
  • III
    The Iliad — the gods watch from the clouds and play men like dice.
  • IV
    The Odyssey — sirens, the cyclops, and one warm light called Ithaca.
  • V
    Medusa, the priestess punished for a god's crime — monster in the world, woman in the mirror.
  • VI
    Jason and the Argonauts row past the clashing rocks — and a witch swears an oath.
  • VII
    The oath repaid. Betrayed, she answers with fire and the chariot of the sun.
  • VIII
    Phaethon takes his father's sun-chariot — a boy too small for the reins.
  • IX
    Prometheus chained to the mountain: “I regret nothing. The fire is already burning.”
  • X
    Orpheus sings death itself to tears — and loses her to a single glance.
  • XI
    The mortals' anthem. Every voice on the record returns to pass the torch.

“The gods were mortal all along.”

The fire cools. The north begins.

Ash and Embers cover
Album II — Norse mythology

Ash and Embers

Eleven tracks · the doom the gods rode out to meet

“We never were the fragile ones.”

  • I
    The world-tree wakes. Three women weave a thread at the well of fate.
  • II
    Odin hangs nine nights, gives an eye for wisdom — and reads the word DOOM.
  • III
    Thor hooks the World Serpent. A coward's knife saves the world — and dooms it.
  • IV
    Loki, blood-brother and blade of the feast, finds a plant too young to swear an oath.
  • V
    Everything swore to spare Baldr. Everything but one sprig of green.
  • VI
    Fenrir bound by a ribbon — and only Tyr's hand was honest enough to pay.
  • VII
    Sigurd and Fafnir. The dying dragon's gift: a curse that changes hands.
  • VIII
    Three winters, no spring. The world eats itself before the monsters arrive.
  • IX
    The horn sounds once. The gods ride out to a fight they know they cannot win.
  • X
    Two humans walk out of the burnt world-tree. Embers start the fire again.
  • XI
    The Norns climb back into the green and begin a new thread. The shears stay closed.

No faces, only stories

What Sons of Clay is

A faceless myth-metal project: no photoshoots, no frontman, no lore but the lore that's three thousand years old. Each album is one continuous saga, written to be heard in order — overture to epilogue, fire to ash.

⚒

The sound

Symphonic hard rock with doom weight — crushing guitars, full orchestra, choirs, voices from whisper to scream.

📜

The stories

The myths told straight, from the side of the ones who burned for them. Victims, defiers, doomed gods.

🜂

The thread

Two records that answer each other — clay and fire, then ash and embers. The wheel turns. The tree grows.
