Description/Reviews: 

The new album by the Swedish composer, on the scenes since more than 20 years, offers to us the usual unique combination of rock, classic, contemporary and Zehul. The dark atmosphere and the astonishing performing by Morgan Ågren on drums are the essential features of Steensland’s sound on this album that represents the highest peak of his creativity.
