Album Notes & Community Reviews

Conceptually framed around the idea of a night spent listening to tales from various historical specters, 'March of Ghosts' captures the Norwegian art-rock group at their most atmospheric. The record trades some of their previous long-form compositional complexity for more concise, hauntingly melodic progressive rock structures driven by soaring violin, mandolin, and piano arrangements.
