Splinterskin – Wayward SoulsLabel: Cold Spring – CSR114CDFormat: CD, AlbumCountry: UKReleased: 27 Aug 2009Style: Folk, Experimental Splinterskin unveils his spell after years of solitude and hermetic isolation, in the form of a harsh, dark folk music.

Yet there are no words to truly describe Splinterskin’s message or music.
