Vocalist/ drummer Rich states “Writing whilst totally cut off from the rest of society and surrounded by a haunting, tranquil beauty is certainly very inspiring for us. We actually feel the Nordic forest hillside rubbed off on the way some of the guitar lines actually sound, particularly in Cardhouse…”
