Germany, 2004, dark folk / neofolk

Forseti – Erde: This is another one of those dark folk albums that’s all about atmosphere: pastoral, like a sylvan winter, a warm light in the cold darkness, like a blazing hearth. There’s an instrument used that sounds something like an accordion. Maybe it is, I don’t know. But it gives a richness to the tracks on which it’s used.
