previous achievements are not emphasized on the hits aplenty third album [1993] of already well familiar folkloric metal forerunners, bravely moving on experimenting even more with traditional instruments, taking all opportunities provided: beside violin, Fritha Jenkins now plays mandolin and keyboards, whilst charisma of frontman Martin Walkyier blossoms in all possible colours, like the impressive cover art itself, pointing at their inherent and essential relation with nature; recent deluxe double digipak edition comes with a remastered sound, vintage photo set, liner notes and interview in sixteen page booklet, and the entire Tracks from the Wilderness EP [1992] with two elsewhere unpublished tracks, three live cuts and Thin Lizzy Emerald cover on the second disk
