Review:
This band consist of veterans in the finnish metal scene, from bands like Moonsorrow, Kreator and Swallow The Sun.
The music got tons of reference to the 70s prog rocks scene. It also contains strong folk influences. W the harsh vocals its very different from most other bands from todays prog-rock scene.
Highly Recommended
