About Botanist
The songs of Botanist are told from the perspective of The Botanist, a crazed man of science who lives in self-imposed exile, as far away from Humanity and its crimes against Nature as possible. In his sanctuary of fantasy and wonder, which he calls the Verdant Realm, he surrounds himself with plants and flowers, finding solace in the company of the Natural world, and envisioning the destruction of man. There, seated upon his throne of Veltheimia, The Botanist awaits the time of humanity's self-eradication, which will allow plants to make the Earth green once again. Botanist's message is of hope, of faith in the power of the Natural balance, one that transcends humanity's self-seen importance and places us all in a truer place in the universal picture. Botanist believes that although mankind is destroying the Earth's natural environment, humanity cannot destroy Nature permanently. Humanity can destroy Nature only for humanity, meaning that even if all life, including humanity, has been eradicated, Nature will bounce back. Something will exist out of nothing, just as it always has, and that something will exist whether humanity is a part of it or not. Botanist believes the world is the most valuable thing in the world. The most essential thing. Nature offers the truest, most tangible vista into the face of the divine, whose unnamable, unknowable existence is reflected through our natural environment. If we want to enjoy this world, to venerate it, to thrive within it, we must respect it, we must protect it, even if it's only for our personal benefit. If we don't, if we annoy the Earth enough, the Earth will kill us and move on. What choice will we make? A musical expression of Nature as divinity. Enter the Verdant Realm. Botanist live is Otrebor (dulcimers) Toorpand (bass) Daturus (drums) Cynoxylon (vocals + harmonium)
