Your connection, your ears and eyes are welcome. https://hyperfollow.com/strompolos https://linktr.ee/cstrompolos Instagram: @chrisstrompolos A Gothic, Theatrical Concept Album for the Broken, the Brave, and the Becoming. "Confront and embrace the darkest things inside yourself. Pain is a path to transformation, peace, and power." - STROMPOLOS Musical artist and composer STROMPOLOS has unveiled a visceral and cinematic new body of work: IN THE TIME OF LIES AND ISOLATION, a dark, nine song dark musical fairytale that plunges deep into the existential wreckage of the human spirit and charts a path toward uneasy rebirth. Produced by Michael Nocny, IN THE TIME OF LIES AND ISOLATION is a theatrical odyssey through existential collapse and the slow, sacred ritual of becoming whole again. This is not just an album — it is a spell, a confession, and a gothic stage play for the soul. Each song unfurls like a velvet curtain, revealing a story of despair, addiction, memory, and ultimate renewal, cloaked in shadowy elegance and poetic menace. Haunted by ghostly melodies, cinematic electronics, and brooding textures, STROMPOLOS delivers a voice rich with theatrical gravitas and emotional fire, weaving mythic narratives into modern wounds. The result is a soundscape that feels like a séance between darkwave, gothic opera, ambient requiem, and sacred ritual. “This album isn’t chasing trends. It’s seeking kindred spirits,” says STROMPOLOS. “It’s for those who find sanctuary in the dark, who may (or may not) know what it means to completely break apart, to rebuild and dare return to the world transformed.” Each of the nine tracks on the album unfold like a chapter in a ghostly novel or a dark romantic film. With aching vocals, atmospheric electronics, and brooding instrumentation, STROMPOLOS constructs an intimate world full of haunted corridors, scattered memories, and emotional truths. The result is a sonic landscape that feels both deeply personal and mythically vast. This is music for those who long for depth in an age of distraction and brokenness. Musically, the album fuses gothic, electronic, acoustic and cinematic elements into a lush, immersive experience - a sound somewhere between a lullaby, a lament, and a sacred invocation. STROMPOLOS’s voice is wholly his own - theatrical, rich and intense. IN THE TIME OF LIES AND ISOLATION is designed to be listened to in sequence, start to finish. A narrative album, a fractured mirror in which the listener might see their own reflection flicker back - flawed, fragile, and defiantly alive. “I hope this record will find its way into the lives of those who need it most,” adds STROMPOLOS. “The ones who’ve been to hell and back yet still believe in beauty and the possibility of healing.” ABOUT STROMPOLOS: Chicago-born and Mississippi-raised, STROMPOLOS is a genre-defying composer and artist whose work explores the intersections of memory, trauma, mythology, and rebirth. Known for his emotionally charged compositions and visual storytelling, he continues to carve out a unique place in the modern gothic and cinematic music landscape. Strompolos’ intense, evocative vocal style paired with his sharp, poetic lyricism and emotionally raw storytelling pulls listeners into a gothic world. Haunting orchestrations, operatic structures, and meticulous songwriting create a rich, immersive landscape where darkness serves as both a prison and a wellspring of healing. A classically trained singer, lyricist, producer, and performer, Strompolos has collaborated with legendary producer Reinhold Mack (Queen, Black Sabbath, Ozzy, ELO) and Oscar and Grammy-winning songwriter Matt Malley (Counting Crows). His life’s adventures have been captured in both a successful book and documentary, further cementing his status as a multi-dimensional artist. #GothicMusic, #DarkWave, #GothicRock, #DarkMusic, #PostPunk, #IndustrialMusic, #DarkElectro, #AlternativeMusic, #GothBand, #UndergroundMusic, #Deathrock, #DarkAmbient, #GothFashion, #GothAesthetic, #DarkFashion, #GothCommunity, #MacabreArt, #OccultArt, #DarkCreatives, #WitchyVibes, #DarkArt, #GothicAesthetic, #GothicArt, #DarkCulture, #GothGirls, #VampireCulture, #EtherealWave, #DarkRomanticism, #Melancholia, #GothMood, #HauntedVibes, #GothFestival, #GothClub, #SupportGothBands, #IndieGothMusic, #GothMusicScene, #DarkMusicLovers, #TheatricalMusic, #ConceptAlbum, #CinematicMusic, #DarkArtistry, #GothRock, #DarkAesthetic, #AtmosphericMusic, #OccultAesthetic, #HauntingVocals, #MysticalVibes, #OtherworldlyMusic, #IndependentArtist, #GothArtist, #MusicOfTheNight, #SupportIndieMusic, #MusicThatTellsAStory, #DarkConceptAlbum, #strompolos, #inthetimeofliesandisolation
