Album Notes & Community Reviews

Following a prolonged hiatus, the revered Swedish progressive rock stalwarts return with an incredibly complex, highly melodic showcase of symphonic prog and sweeping acoustic folk. The meticulously arranged, deeply technical instrumentation balances moments of intense, passionate playing with surprisingly mellow, distinctly melancholic reflections. 'Songs for Beating Hearts' is a majestic, wildly eclectic comeback.
