Album Notes & Community Reviews

Released the same year as 'Daughter of Darkness', 'Shadow Kingdom' is a slightly more concise but equally haunting entry in the band's catalog. It blends acoustic guitars with ghostly drones and percussion, creating a medieval, other-worldly atmosphere. It feels like a soundtrack to a lost dark fantasy film.
