UM HIMINJǫÐUR

Tirill is a project of Norwegian artist Tirill Mohn, she composed all music on this album, produced it, played acoustic guitar, mellotron, keyboards, violin, percussion and sung on it. What you can hear on this record is mysterious, intriguing, dreamy, sad and beautiful. A mighty combination if you ask me. Tirill Mohn has an amazing voice, with a lot of personality. The same could be said about male vocals. Yes, vocal performances are great throughout this album. Nice acoustic work, atmospheric flute, cello and violin phrases. The medieval feel also is present in the music.

Nothing really groundbreaking here (don't think it was meant to be that way) in terms of writing, but it is very well performed, very soulful, innocent and peaceful.
