Reviews
"A Bewitching Record....These Eight Tracks Are Rooted in Stillness...", 3.5 Stars Out of 5 -- "Layered, Gorgeous...LUSH with Nuanced Drift and Harmonic Sweetness.", 3 stars out of 5 -- "'Ekki Mukk' is a gossamer-light, if strangely riveting voice in the wilderness, while 'Vardeldur' drifts agreeably off into softly chiming waves of yearning desolation.", 3 stars out of 5 -- "The closing track, 'Fjogur Piano,' is a warm smudge of sound, apparently bathed in the glow from a tallow lamp...", "There's no denying the impressive dimensions of the often-static sounds here. Nobody gets more excited about a single massive chord than these guys."
