Dark Math / Prog Chords (Harmonic Minor 7th Chords And Interesting Shapes)

I've been getting more into playing with harmonic minor and its modes. Attached are 1) a file outlining some good "power chord" type 7th chords that put the 5th in the bass. Very chunky and offers a familiar aesthetic. File 2) demonstrates a chord progression using some interesting and very mathy sounding chords for harmonic minor. If you mine deep enough you can find some recognizable shapes from the world of major. Maybe a bit of an Animals As Leaders vibe can be achieved by using more conventional math rock chords in this context.
For example, in the key of C harmonic minor, it is diatonically possible to play chords like
Cmaj7sus2
Csus2, Fsus2, Gsus4,
Fm9(no5)
Emaj9(no5)
Abmaj7 and it's inversions.
Very math chords!

This looks great. Is there going to be an accompanying video?
