Album Notes & Community Reviews

The Finnish collective's fifth album is a remarkably intricate, incredibly sombre exploration of Nordic folk and naturalistic melancholy. Relying on acoustic guitars, piano, choirs, and mournful violin, it paints a cinematic, deeply atmospheric portrait of wintery isolation.
