Here, they are providing a soundtrack for a film, ”Malmö A Tarot Of The Green Wood by Burd Ellen favorite track The Fool Glaswegian duo Burd Ellen base most of this release (save the final track) on traditional songs, intertwined with ruminations on the Major Arcana of the Tarot. This is very Celtic-inspired, with pipes, keyboards, and a male guest vocalist. Debbie Armour handles vocals throughout, and Gayle Brogan constitutes “all other sounds.” They create an ethereal and otherworldly atmosphere, full of enchantment. The garden of mysteries by In The Labyrinth favorite track HIRAM ABIFF This is a reissue of an earlier release by Peter Lindhal, along with 4 bonus tracks. Peter has a particular genius at creating alternative medieval-like worlds, and leads a huge cast of players in making these come to life.
