GelatinousFury It's near-unbelievable to me that I've been listening to this track for almost 20 years now. It never gets old. It is one of the most simultaneously calming and timeless tracks I've ever heard.

Blauer Selbstmord Among all neofolk works out there, this track stands out as an exceptionally beautiful and creative composition.
Nest's instrumental style is pretty cool, but Agalloch's vocals make it a masterpiece. A must-listen.

N2MB Really captures the feeling that you're in a forsaken forest. A folk classic.

Owen W Relaxing and entrancing. Good music for setting a mood. Agalloch's contributions build on Nest's sound beautifully.

lyrics

"Once we played in this forest
in the shade of the tall trees at the dawn of this particular time
but many an aeon has passed since
and many a fate has changed

...and our great woods died
no new seeds have been planted for ages
and those that were have been torn out from the soil"
