Combine the ritual aspects of MZ.412 and the darkest ambience from Nordvargr and you get 'Anima Nostra' - a collaboration between Margaux Renaudin and Henrik N. Björkk that marks a new era in the vast cannon of the latter and as well as the former. 'Anima Nostra' is also a visual experience, with artwork that will guide the open mind into deeper understanding. The album features guest vocals by death metal mastermind Nader Sadek, recorded inside the sacred Sneferu pyramid in Cairo. Included is an alternate version of MZ.412's 'Mourning Star', which is an even more ominous behemoth than the original. The CD comes in a magnificent, metallic-print adorned 6-panel digipak, with an 8-page booklet, containing stunning alchemical artwork.
