= Citat =:
A lonely maiden stands in the forest. As the sun sets down, she is overcome by despair. She shares her feelings with the forest. Late at night, it begins to rain. The maiden falls on her knees and starts to cry. She remains there.
Next morning, a group of children are playing near the forest. The land echoes with cheerful voices and sounds of fresh morning.
Years and years later, the forest is in sorrow. It's ancient inhabitants are long gone. There is no trace of the young maiden.
These are just some of the emotions and imagery this album has blessed me with. Drudkh have achieved that incredible atmosphere once again. The name is well-fitting. If you comprehend this album enough, you will get to experience some grief and solitude. The sweet folk melodies will take you to ancient times, provoke images of people wearing traditional clothes, hunting inside the forest or such. It is beatiful.
