MARIUS BODIN LARSEN: DISCOGRAPHY

 


The Smell of Incense:  Through the Gates of Deeper Slumber

 
Go from here eastwards and pass the fields we know, till you see the lands that pertain clearly to faery, and cross that  boundary, which is made of twilight, and come to that palace that is only told of in song.
