"Vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Solveig Roseth presents her second EP under the Kikimora moniker, released via Virkelighedsfjern. Inspired by early black metal and minimalist folk music, Kikimora’s compositions present alternatingly sparse and abrasive guitar pieces, anchored by Roseth’s soaring vocals, fluctuating from delicate choral arrangements to distressed and distorted. From the droning rendition of Monteverdi’s baroque madrigal Lamento Della Ninfa, to the mix of metallic blasts and soprano harmonies of Sjølvganding, the EP unfolds in a barren yet beautiful landscape."
