Second album by Iosophis, the Folk project born of the ashes of the Third Wave. Less minimal, more emotional and organic and all in all more undeniably “folk” than its predecessor "N", “M” was inspired and recorded live, three days after the Winter Solstice, in miscellaneous places such as small churches, ruins and forests near the centre of France. Sometimes reminiscent of 70s English Folk music, sometimes calling to mind the work of Scivias or Cascadian folk bands... Digipak.

LARRNAKH - 'Now Will You Believe?' CD (Steinklang)
Great Neofolk album featuring (ex)members of Cawatana, Sturmast and Scivias. "Now will you believe?" is a brilliant mix of classical guitar-based Neofolk with electronic elements, varied and assembled with droning Ritual / Dark-Ambient tracks. The mix of two completely different styles in music makes this album an outstanding new milestone of "crossovers". Dark and sometimes frightening soundscapes with samples, trumpets and haunting drums are compiled with beautiful harps, piano, violin and narrating vocals, rounded by fine Neoclassical elements. Digipak.
