Wow. This is great! I love the linguistic and cultural background. It makes me love the music even more. Thanks Anna!

I thought the jibberish sounds suspiciously like Icelandic….an ancient nordic language that has remained the same-ish for a 1000 years and from which my mother’s tongue Swedish evolved – and sure enough, google translate tells me it is about someone’s relationship to an ominous silent iceberg (under the ice there’s lava and rock) that engulfs us in its silence; about burning (in an abstract sense); flames and ashes.
All in all it seems to portray a very mythopoetic sensation of us belonging to the earth itself, the icelandic ‘soil’ a picture for the battle within a soul; of powers beyond intellect and ancient hunts for meaning (btw I believe the masks they wear are old hunting gear, possibly even inuite).
