When I first heard this group I thought good god this is some really great music. It fuses progressive with black metal really great and their 2012 album Riitiir is my album of 2012 because it is just superb and well without any faults to it really. Fantastic band I need to discover their really old albums.

If you haven't heard The Sleeping Gods EP the band allowed it as a free download. I agree they do set great atmosphere and I like the nice mix of harsh and even clean vocals on some of their songs.
