波特蘭音樂家 A.L.N. 的化名，從 2012 年開始以 solo artist 的方式透過黑金屬作為與上帝溝通的工具，也是他對自我探索的武器；新專輯他放下了原有創作的格式，也是唯一一張沒有上帝、無神論內容的作品，取而代之的是更貼近真實生活、人性、活在當下的種種故事。（編按：之前的專輯是在矛盾中的拉扯，這次是用整張專輯與過往的一切作品矛盾。）
Mizmor, is a one-man heavy music exploration that began in 2012 as a way of dealing with the mental and spiritual anguish mastermind A.L.N. feels as a person. More specifically, the content behind the project is that of the existential / primal and innate musings about cause, purpose, and self. It is the search for light and truth, or the fact that there is none. It comes from an embittered, burned, confused, and broken heart. It is the fight for survival when reason and foundation has turned to nothingness. It is the crashing down of towers of falsehood and the freedom that comes through a certain kind of grief. Ultimately, Mizmor is the manifestation of a long-felt depression which doesn have an end in sight.
In A.L.N. own words behind the new Mizmor album Prosaic:
“The idea behind Prosaic was to make an intentionally less conceptual, more slice-of-life record. I wanted to make an album that was less precious and obsessed-over, more honest and real; less grandiose and more human. I found it an interesting challenge to find the line between you can do better and youre beating a dead horse. I tried to make my process more efficient and even fun at times. I simply wanted to share, but if that meant exacting all-out perfectionism, I wasnt going to make a record. Right now Im interested in making less self-indulgent music. The themes are the absurdity / futility / purpose / meaning of work, mindfulness / consciousness / living in the present moment / shedding illusions, depression / acceptance / contentment. This is the first Mizmor album without any content relating to god / atheism. You also wont hear any shrieks.”
