Rife with lyrics of pagan poetry, Nordic mythos and anchored to this world only by his dynamic sound, Kim Larsen, better known as the folk act :Of the Wand & The Moon: sparks visions of the old gods in the Lone Descent. Often hailed as the opus of Kim Larson, this album features more direct song approaches, a very emotive mix and much more up front vocals. Using his own vocals as an instrument, he layers various octaves of his own vocals to create a choir. Where Sonnenheim sang of summer, the Lone Descent sings of life’s brisk autumn, taking you by the hand as if to lead you to death’s door. Cool, refreshing and beautiful, each chord resonates with emotive eloquence like a river babbling in the background, adding words to nature’s ambiance.
