Album Notes & Community Reviews

Documenting a towering 2018 performance opening for Nick Cave, this live release highlights the Swedish composer's mastery of the pipe organ within a heavy, doom-laden context. The massive acoustic resonance of the instrument, paired with her soaring, wordless vocals and a crushing rock ensemble, creates an overwhelming atmosphere of occult grandeur.
