Album Notes & Community Reviews

Drifting further away from their heavy metal origins, the Finnish pioneers fully embraced psychedelic 1970s progressive rock and expansive saxophone solos. The album maintains a deeply melancholic, Nordic atmosphere, relying heavily on Pasi Koskinen's clean vocal melodies and swirling keyboard textures.
