Album Notes & Community Reviews

Kim Larsen's dark folk project delivers a deeply melancholic, acoustic-driven rumination on pagan mysticism and nature. The sparse, funereal arrangements heavily utilize delicate acoustic strumming, martial percussion, and deep, chanted vocals to construct an ominous and highly ritualistic atmosphere.
