Castles in Space

From horseback to spaceship. With folky melodies in a stream of the humming sounds of insects.

<i>Insektsfolk</i> (or insect folk in English) could refer to a sort of insect people but it could also be a musical genre where folk music and insects merge. There’s a meeting of fantasy and science fiction here. The insect is a classic inspiration for sci-fi but it’s present in old sagas as well. To us it’s describing the way the record sounds - a tale from horseback to spaceship. With folky melodies in a stream of the humming sounds of insects.

The titles of the record are made up insect names for made up insects. This is again in the theme of fantasy / sci-fi where a common insect like the sowbug (gråsugga in Swedish) is transformed to “Silversugga”.
