I've never seen this; will need some time to digest it completely. My initial thought is I'm in this weird museum at night and I have insomnia.

the whole album is fantastic and her brother's solo work is well worth looking into, as well, and their (the knife) new album is absolutely amazing.

Wow! Very cool-I need to hear/see more of this band. Thank you!

Okay, that was lovely and surreal. I'd heard FR before but it's a bit too mellow for my daily listening. Good background music, though.

Oddly enough, the canoes and torches reminded me of another video from a few years back -- HIM's "Funeral of Hearts." Naked old men painted gold, witches, angels, demons, and the singer's wolfish grin goes literal at one point. I don't know what's going on there, but the Finnish winter is evidently way more interesting than Indiana's.

Thank you for posting these, by the way. I'm looking forward to more!

Thank you for posting this series of videos. I hadn't watched any until I started going through them one by one tonight. I don't go hunting for new music often, usually wait for it to find me, and damn this is good.
