The Allegory of Plato’s Cave, inspired by Plato’s Republic, explores topics of awareness, reality, and knowledge across 11 exciting tracks. Every single track represents a chapter in the metaphor, taking listeners from the constraints of the cave to the revolutionary power of the bright world beyond.

Yfantis’ use of lo-fi aesthetics and ambient instrumentation creates a cinematic tale, with various layers of sound expressing both mystery and revelation. The album pays homage to Plato’s classic philosophical narrative, reinterpreted through the prism of modern folk and dungeon synth music.
