with previous opus releasing their inner demons and literally obtaining wings to write music free from cliches, four Icelanders continue on unique creative journey [2008], flawlessly blending visionary post-rock licks with fundamental blackened primordial metal for a truly mind-expanding experience, taking the sound even further and adding a nostalgic touch to piercing harmonies and mesmerizing choruses, where intertwined guitar motifs complement striking dynamic contrasts while melancholic longing gradually builds into a grand, emotionally liberating musical catharsis; this gifted entity manages to create an exceptional vibe where personal impulses become universal, and vice-versa, luring the listener into their subtle ethereal world
