The third full-length album from Hjalti is finally here, and it’s a monster. The evolutionary changes apparent between Winter Asks What We Did in the Summer and the follow-up, And Will You Leave Me Thus… have accelarated with this release, giving us a glimpse of a gorgeous and terrifying vision. Chords stretch and drag, pulled like tides reacting to some distant mass, while thundering drums press in from all around, deeper and more intense with every track. Respite is momentary, but oh so sweet. Then comes more crushing darkness…

Include remixes by Ryan Math, Miniature Airlines, the Googly, and Naturebot.

Available for purchase on CD for $8 including domestic shipping, or as a digital download for $5.
