Hey Dan! Thanks for the add. I'm lookin' forward the re-release of the Odyssey EP, now with bonus tracks, as well for the release of the new album! I'm really anxious, since I have the original EP CD and although it has only three tracks, I think it's one of the best Doom releases of all times. Indeed, a classic!
¡Thanks for the add! I'm proud to be an Odyssey friend! I was searching for this space as I do with any project envolving Dan Swanö! Keep the flame burning! METAAAL!
