about

Across deserts and oceans, endless stretches of interstellar tollways and ending (or beginning) in the borough of Brooklyn, the advent of Crown-Lites encapsulates the travels through space and time of Matt Kursmark and Mike Sarason. After nearly two decades of collaboration across numerous bands, tours and projects, Crown-Lites was officially formed as a production team when the two began experimenting with electromagnetic reel-to-reel recording techniques in early 2020. This process combined with a love of the esoteric unlocked a neoteric dominion of creation for the dyad, providing the promethean spark for their first release … An original soundtrack for a lost and hitherto unknown film, Forest of the Black Marigold.

Nobody expected it … and nobody could believe it … but could anyone comprehend it?

Would anyone dare step outside to confront the unknown? Or would forces greater than any individual weave a kinetic reaction tighter than previously imaginable.

Was the forest glowing? Or was it just a case of collective paranoia? Who would breach the forest line and uncover the truth about the powerful and mythical flower?

Would it blossom for doom or benefaction … pollenate life or death?
What will happen if you enter … Forest of the Black Marigold.
