First album since 2012 from this famous Pagan Folk band hailing from the Amur Region, Russia. The band utilise Slavic style folk instruments along with acoustic guitars and clean vocals / chants bringing in a medieval and pagan atmosphere. All of the musical instruments (including flutes, mandolins, harps, bagpipes) have a very powerful sound to them.
