The band comments on the chosen concept:
We were inspired by two great poets who speak of human despair. Inner monsters and ghosts, horror and pain. Two authors with different voices, with whom we have imagined and played with, and made different musical lines with the intent of evoking human and earthly energies.
Hornwood Fell’s upcoming album, Cursed Thoughts, is available for pre-order HERE.
