The Scribes made many Foretelling in the days before the Ending Time. Employed by the Slavic dukes they would toil to make predictions for their masters. While the dukes dined on suckling pig in their marbled halls, the Scribes huddled in the candle light of their under-rooms. When the Foretelling arrived, the eyes of the Scribes would roll upwards in their heads and their quills would scratch ramblings and snatches of the things to come.
One such Scribe, Obseqious, saw Teeth Of The Sea in a dark Foretelling. Obseqious fell into a deep trance for many days, to the point in which the duke raged at the thought of his valuable Scribe possibly dying. When Obseqious awoke his papers where full of scattered notes on Teeth Of The Sea. He later compiled them into a vague narrative, translated by a Czech historian:
… there will come a time in which the beloved Post Rock will falter and fall… tired from an excess of mediocrity and usage in wildlife documentaries… the people will mourn and wail at the passing. All is not lost however… slowly from the embers a shape will appear… new ideas… the thing will rise… it will call itself Teeth Of The Sea, as representing an attack from the primordial, connecting to the past while aggressively forging the future… Teeth Of The Sea will start as Post Rock dies, but as the giant will fall, Teeth Of The Sea will grow stronger by taking on elements and energy from the other dimensions. This life energy will succour them as the lights go out. They will draw energy from techno and rave as they spawn MASTER, a blend of experimental electro to make a sci fi soundtrack that bruises the soul as it moves the feet… MASTER will be followed by Highly Deadly Black Tarantula in which Teeth Of The Sea will flirt with the main stream and inject it’s inky goo into the consciousness of the outside world… The people will be be-dazzled under this glammer… They will wait agog for the next spawnage… What follows will be WRAITH and the people will be surprised as it does not follow their trajectory, but what ever will with Teeth Of The Sea?? Instead the new entry will be a paranoid and demented affair… a noirish trip into soundtracked depths of the abyss. While MASTER will sound like a Philip K Dick book, WRAITH will sound like a cross between The Maltese Falcon and Trainspotting, with a smackhead Sam Spade shooting up while the black bird looks on… People will be puzzled. But they will accept that Post Rock has died and Teeth Of The Sea will be a beacon of hope in a morass of creative devolution… the people will love them…
After assembling his Foretelling he passed it on the duke who raged in anger, for he was really looking forward to Sigur Ros.
