Artists, inevitably, always have been inspired by their surroundings, the landscapes in which they grew up or which they subsequently found themselves inhabiting, the ultimate balance of nature and nurture, one complementing the other, each in harmony, counteracting and interacting with mutual respect, partners in sometimes enforced existence. This symbiosis is perfectly exemplified in this maelstrom of symphonic darkness which has its sonic origins in the beautiful, bleak and brutal landscape of the Norwegian archipelago which historically served as the last stop-off point for Viking adventurers before they set out on their trans-Atlantic voyages of discovery – explorations which are echoed in this equally beautiful, bleak and brutal opus.
