about

A cinematic landscape and its echoing remains. A journey through time to an old, forgotten place. This is the epic tale of "Deception Island," the long-awaited second album by Minneapolis gypsy noir quintet Bella Koshka. Haunting whispers weave between guitar and violin arrangements, pushed by ominous bass and booming percussion. Eerie saw, organ and cello layers round out each song to create a medieval soundtrack. Recorded by Darren Jackson (Kid Dakota, The Hopefuls), mixed by Brad Kern (producer and sound engineer for Semisonic and The Twilight Hours) and mastered by Tom Garneau.
