Lux Interna

**Lux Interna** is a dark folk/neofolk project helmed by musician and poet Joshua Levi Ian, blending introspective lyricism with haunting acoustic textures. Emerging in the late 1990s, the project weaves themes of spirituality, myth, and existential reflection into a sound that feels both ancient and contemporary. Over the years, Lux Interna’s music has evolved from raw, minimalist arrangements to lush, atmospheric compositions, earning a cult following among fans of acts like Death in June or Current 93.

Recent releases like *New Wilderness Gospel* and *There Is Light in the Body, There Is Blood in the Sun* showcase their signature blend of poetic mysticism and earthy instrumentation, while tracks from *Into Night* and *Like Wolves* lean into moody, ritualistic folk. Joshua’s work often feels like a pilgrimage—raw, meditative, and unafraid to wander into shadowy emotional terrain. Though active for decades, Lux Interna retains a deeply personal, almost devotional quality, inviting listeners to explore the liminal spaces between light and darkness.
