Forest Hymns by VINTERGRAV

'Forest Hymns' is a celebration of the natural world, where old folklore, fantasy and the mystical embrace of nature converge. An audible journey through ones own soul and connection to nature. The lyrics tell of transcendence and paint pictures of ancient myths and tales, while the music weaves simple yet intricate melodies that smell like the smoke of a campfire in a starlit night. Therefore, the album is not just a collection of songs, but an immersive experience - a profound reflection of reverence for nature's secrets and spiritual awakening.
