Thanks for sharing fra. Sebomai! I started to listen to it and fell in love with it already!

Nearly everything by Peter Andersson (Raison D'etre), is good.

I totally agree about Peter Anderrson, which brings me to a subject of great excitement to me. When I've moved to New Jersey - Near NYC, I will have a very real possibility of seeing Raison D'etre perform live along with Brighter Death Now, the headliners, and Deutsch Nepal. I'm very hopeful and will be ecstatic if it works out.

And fra. Fomalhaut, I have no clue why I did not respond to you. My guess is I saw it early in the morning while still sleepy or else right near a time where I had to be busy with something else, did not get a chance to reply, and forgot to reply later. But thank you. I hope when you completed the work, it justified your early listening positive feeling about it. :)

I like Elijah's Mantle's reading of Baudelaire's Litanies of Satan. Perfectly lazy vocals!

Ha! You're right! Put some ambient as background-music & it's nearly perfect.

Yeah, after a few listens I've ended up really liking it; it took me a while to get used to his accent. Shame all his music's so expensive. Kind of reminded me of some of Coil's lazier stuff.

Well, I don't know if this really goes under the topic perfectly, but I wanted to share this. For friends of Wardruna & other nordic-inspired music, this is a probable like:

They seem to also have a tumblr and FB, where they sometimes share photographs they (or is this a solo project?) take. I find this very atmospheric. The songs are inspired by Swedish folklore & mythology. Also my personal favourite character, Bäckahästen (a little like Kelpie) is present!

Thanks, you are right, as a fan of Wardruna I really liked it :D. It has a more 'epic' sound, I guess it's halfway between Wardruna and Summoning.

I guess Arvo Pärt or Thomas Tallis are not new to people here, but they just came to mind as I've been listening to these a lot lately. Tallis gives me a very peaceful feeling, but it's not every day music.
