Animus Retinentia

by PETER BJÄRGÖ

supported by

Mike Plugge Another amazing release by Peter Bjärgö. The strings on "In Agony" are stunning! Favorite track: In Agony.

Robert C. Kozletsky One of my favorite people I've ever had the pleasure to meet. Peter Bjärgö's music is as deep as his soul and personality and what you hear on Animus Retinentia is nothing short of breath taking. His best solo album to date. Favorite track: In Agony.

Sun Through Eyelids Another mournful masterpiece from one of the greatest musicians I've ever encountered.

Hidden Greg Brooding and melodic, this album manages to maintain a dark atmosphere without losing structure or going overtly heavy on the instrumentation. I'd agree that this is one of Peter's best, and a stand-out album of unique value within my bandcamp collection. Favorite track: In Agony.

about

3rd full length album by ARCANA / SOPHIA mastermind Peter Bjärgö. On his solo works we hear the perfect blend of his previous incarnations where dreamy piano parts, rhythmic percussions and his now trade mark guitar, all blended into perfection. Solemn vocals filled with lyrics of distress and mournfulness lull us into the nether. Filled with nostalgia and longing of a lost world, "Animus Retinentia" forms a threshold into another world where glimpses of light always shine through. A splendid follow up to his previous solo works and dare we say, his best yet.

Edition of 500 copies in 6 panel Digipack. 11 Tracks. Running Time 45:55

Ur Djupan Dal

Wow. Now & then a "dark ambient" album comes by that instantly captures your imagination totally. For example: Lustmord's Black Stars, Time Machines' eponymous album, and this. There's something literally magical about this, when I listen to it, I feel like I've been placed under some kind of spell, it grabs & holds you from start to end. Maybe it's something about the melancholic, mysterious chordal modes, maybe how the music flows over you & envelopes you in its dark, warm embrace. Spooky! Daniel Ruben

Moody dark ambient from Dahlia’s Tear, the expansive sounds on “Through the Nightfall Grandeur” are as melancholy as they are unsettling. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 16, 2018
