Album Notes & Community Reviews
This early collection comprises previously unreleased tracks, including a neo-classical reimagining of older material and a striking cover of Sol Invictus' 'Kneel to the Cross'. The project heavily emphasizes the acoustic, atmospheric neofolk elements of the band over their traditional black metal aggression. It beautifully captured the Portland group solidifying their unique, nature-worshipping aesthetic amidst the burgeoning atmospheric metal scene.
