Writing and recording

edit

Most of the songs were written by Walran and Rosarius between August 2007 and June 2009.[2] Ronnie joined in Spring 2009, a few months before they entered the studio.[3] The album was recorded and mixed between December 2009 and February 2011.

The song Dans Les Vallées Eternelles was inspired by the Draconian song The Cry of Silence and the While Heaven Wept song The Drowning Years.[4] Weeping Ghost was the first song Angellore wrote, with the album version being the third version.[5]
