With the crackling of the four-logged flame, the rustling of falling leaves, the slow grinding of stone to soil; the slanting light of the waning sun, the lilting call of the ram’s horn, and the subtle-warm voice of the high priestess, the ancient Swedish harvest festival begins. Let Draugurinn’s latest evocative, site-specific dark ambient masterpiece take you there. Dave Aftandilian
'Paleowolf' is on the forefront of the new-ambient genre. Echo the footprints of a forgotten world, still resonating through history and "the ages".
Strap yourself in, and let yourself be transported to an ancient world filled with unknown peril. reb1138
This album sounds a bit more rough and raw to me, compared to "Móðuharðindin" for example. But thats totally fine. Really enjoyable Dark Ambient. ᛉ Heidan Frihals ᛉ
This might be my favourite of Heilung. They've improved a bit on their later releases but their debut is still much meaner, and darker. Maria's amazing voice obviously steals the show but I also quite like Kai's too, especially on the live performance. In fact I'd say get LIFA over this IMO.
The spoken word bits are really cool to hear proto-germanic in use but for relistening purposes they are going to be a bit obtrusive. Nevertheless the proper music here is on continual repeat for me. Rabbit
