The final few minutes conclude with grand orchestrations as if providing the soundtrack to a battle scene. Even around the nine minute mark, where the track slows down to more of an ambient piece, it never looses its grace and continues to appeal to the time period of the ancient ones.
Nothing is rushed and the continuous buildup to a sonic conclusion is quite impressive. Since time is not an issue, the inclusion of lead keyboard chops are mixed in at random intervals, in an appealing fashion.
Rhythmic, percussive beats and layered keys set the backbone of this imposing dirge. “The Ruins In The Forest I” is a sixteen and a half minute perilous journey through the archaic lands of the middle-ages. As one dons a pair of headphones and presses play on this obscure little album, an immediate surrender to ancient medieval times becomes inevitable. These two extended tracks (around thirty six minutes long total), heave the listener deep into enchanted times where Kings and Castles were at the forefront of every commoners conversation. Take for example ‘The Ruins In The Forest’ by Osmord. Who says time machines don’t exist? They don’t necessarily have to be a physical matter but can exist in an emotional state as well.
