about

A massive debut! This gem laid the foundations of Karjalan Sissit's unique sound: screaming choirs, pounding percussion, massive orchestras. A bombastic yet solemn album that laid the ground for a whole scene with its hard hitting Martial / Industrial anthems. The album is inspired and dedicated to Markus Personen's uncle who fought in the Winter war, against the Soviet invasion of Finland. For fans of the mightiest works by In Slaughter Natives or Laibach. This debut CD was limited to 1000 copies and is long sold out.

"...an epic release of cinematic proportions where classical strains segue into period music. Karjalan Sissit use massed voices very effectively alongside the deep solemn strains of symphonic music that ably conveys the battlefields of lost lives. Slow paced swathes of dark ambience... thunderous tirades of percussion... Karjalan Sissit represent a new entry into the neoclassical genre inhabited by Les Joyaux De La Princesse and countless others but this is a sombre and intense piece of work." (Compulsion Online)

❤️My original plan was to go through and buy individual tracks like I do with most compilation albums, but honestly there are just so many good ones that I wound up buying the whole thing. More than simple drones (though there are plenty of those, too), this album collects many of the best and most innovative dark ambient artists in one place, including many who are new to me. A must-have for any dark ambient fan's collection. Plushie Fanatic
