Album Notes & Community Reviews

Formed as a supergroup featuring members of prominent Finnish acts like Amorphis and Swallow the Sun, the sextet delivered a towering debut of atmospheric heavy metal. Masterfully blending the sorrowful, lumbering pace of death-doom with the intricate keyboards and acoustic interludes of 1970s progressive rock, the album established them as a formidable new presence in the European scene.
