Style: etherial oriental ritual neoclassical ambient

new era for the genius ritualistic neoclassical ambient project, led by Peter Bjärgö [Crypt Of Kerberos, ex. Tyrant] has just begun with the fifth full-length opus [2004]: its tantras clearly move away from dark medieval sound picture of the past catalogue to embrace the oriental mysticism and flavour, incorporating intricate percussion and some more exotic instruments; like the glorious Dead Can Dance, they are able to create a mirage-like feeling that sounds very spiritual indeed; exclusive vinyl edition comes with pro-printed insert sheet, limited to 666 units
