Henrik Nordvargr Björkk is the colossus behind the world-renowned acts Pouppée Fabrikk and Mz.412. Combine the ritual aspects of Mz.412 and the darkest ambience of Nordvargr, with vocal materials and a rising spiritual awakening, and you get Anima Nostra, a collaboration between Margaux Renaudin and Björkk that marks a new era in the vast canon of the latter and as well as the former. Anima Nostra is also a visual experience, with artwork that guides 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" -- an even more ominous behemoth than the original -- that perfectly complements the rhythmic structures contained in the album. A remarkable synchronization of minds. Comes in a magnificent metallic-printed six-panel digipak with eight-page booklet containing Renaudin's stunning alchemical artwork.
