about

Written in Eahtoða Géar - 2017

"Then she rode forth, clothed on with chastity:
The deep air listen'd round her as she rode,
And all the low wind hardly breathed for fear."
Tennyson - 1842

"A place so full of a grey pibble stone of great bignes as is not usually seene; they breake them and build their howses of them and walls, laying mosse betweene, the inhabaitants calling them Saracens' stones, and in this parish, a myle and a halfe in length, they lie so thick as you may goe upon them all the way. They call that place the Grey-weathers, because a far off they looke like a flock of sheepe." Symonds - 1859

"On the shore stood the opposing army with its dense array of armed warriors, while between the ranks dashed women, in black attire like the Furies, with hair dishevelled, waving brands. All around, the Druids, lifting up their hands to heaven, and pouring forth dreadful imprecations, scared our soldiers by the unfamiliar sight, so that, as if their limbs were paralysed, they stood motionless, and exposed to wounds. Then urged by their general's appeals and mutual encouragements not to quail before a troop of frenzied women, they bore the standards onwards, smote down all resistance, and wrapped the foe in the flames of his own brands. A force was next set over the conquered, and their groves, devoted to inhuman superstitions, were destroyed." Tacitus - 60AD

The Long Winter
by Forest Shrine

supported by 5 fans who also own “Hearpswēg”

As a genre that relies so heavily on nostalgia, Dungeon Synth as a genre has some hard limits. However, when done right, it can really just draw you in. Forest Shrine just does everything right here. The music does a great job at visualizing a winter landscape in all of its stark beauty and I suspect enjoying this in the snow will make it even better. 3.5/5 ClassyMusicSnob

Caverns Under the Wetland
by Criecziel

supported by 4 fans who also own “Hearpswēg”

I'll preface this with the fact that this is my favorite DS album of time. So thematically consistent, a nice blend of wonder and somber feelings. A truly transportive album, it’s hard to pick a favorite track because they all work together and feel like part of a larger whole. If forced to choose, the final track “Earthen Shrine” tied the album off beautifully, but I think that Morning Mist is one of the prettiest DS tracks I've ever listened to. Grackle
