Turquoise double vinyl, limited to 400 copies in gatefold sleeve.

About the album

"Endless Twilight of Codependent Love," Sólstafir’s latest opus, stands as a testament to the band’s ability to meld contrasting influences into an epic auditory experience. The Icelandic landscape, with its glaciers, volcanic terrains, and fjords, serves as a backdrop for this musical journey. Tracks like "Dionysus" bring a black metal intensity, whereas "Her Fall From Grace" and "Til Moldar" offer ethereal soundscapes. The album’s depth is further enriched by the emotional resonance of songs like "Akkeri," showcasing their mastery over a broad spectrum of musical styles.

Sólstafir’s exploration of themes such as nature, mythology, and human emotion is palpable throughout the album. The use of diverse instrumentation and rich textures creates an immersive sound that transcends traditional genre boundaries. Fans of Primordial and Enslaved will find familiar echoes in their work but will also appreciate Sólstafir’s unique ability to intertwine post-metal elements with Icelandic heathen rock influences. The evocative cover art by Johann Baptist Zwecker ties the visual and auditory components into a cohesive narrative, making this release not just music but an art piece.
