Two years on from their excellent debut album Winter Sun, - an album steeped in the chilly themes of longing, confusion, and a creeping sense of dread at the slow march of "progress" - the band return with Sacred to the Shades, an album that delves into historical allusions, stirred by the thought of living in the shadows of fallen empires, never quite learning from what has gone before. From the opening rumbles of 'A Brief Introduction to Modern History', with it's pining guitar notes swooping above a rain-soaked serenade to some washed-up old circus performer down on his luck, Sacred to the Shades is arguably at it's most striking on the two-part, 'Shades'. Part one explores the idea of living in the shadows for a long time before eventually finding glory when you least expect it, and how that experience might make you feel about the person with whom you shared your life up to that point.
