Description/Reviews: 

... you get dark, eerie, nostalgic and somewhat soothing music with symphonic elements and heartfelt guitar solos. Landing on the softer side of the post-progressive spectrum, Kristoffer Gildenlöw has been compared with bands and artists such as David Sylvian, The Deer Hunter, Blackfield, No Man, Roger Waters among others. From small, minimalistic songs and soundscapes to full symphonic rock with choirs, strings, brass, howling guitar solos and carefully chosen instrumentations, his music tells a story.
