Lunatic Soul's 7th album Through Shaded Woods is widely regarded as one of the most refined and richly realised albums in the Lunatic Soul discography.
On this album, Duda extends his musical explorations to include dark Scandinavian & Slavic folk, referencing bands like Heilung or Wardruna. Following the heavily electronic soundscapes of previous albums Fractured & Under The Fragmented Sky, Through Shaded Woods is completely devoid of electronics & is the first album in Duda's catalogue on which he plays all instruments.
The concept has been described by Duda as the "Shaded Woods being our worst traumas and nightmares. Going through these woods symbolises facing them. It's a test of courage. Musically, we're going on a journey inspired by dark Scandinavian and Slavic folk.”
Mariusz found his inspiration for the album from his childhood home, an area of Poland known for its forests and lakes, "I think I have always wanted to create an album steeped in nature & woodlands. These bring to my mind freedom, breathing & a dance ritual of coming back to nature, so I wanted the album to include such ritualistic primal dances, shamanic, Slavic & Viking moods. I wanted to mix it all up & put it all together, making Through Shaded Woods the most intense, dynamic & the most danceable album in my career."
This CD edition of 'Through Shaded Woods' is presented as a 4-panel digipack and includes a 16-page printed booklet.
