I love night walks and this album narrates those solitary moments.
Utterly other-worldly in its delivery and truly encourages me to marvel at the most simple additions to the music. It also fits into the narrow category of ambient music which truly engrosses me throughout. An atmospheric gem.
Favorite track: Bridge of Leaves.

I don't know that you can prefer any one song from this album. They all work together as one piece, eerily flowing and peaking in different moods and tones.
If someone had told me that there was this great synth-driven album that sounded like the spooky scenes from 80s sci-movies, I'd have passed. But I'm glad I found this album. It's haunting, mellow, dark, and lovely.

They have outdone themselves on this record. A cross between Tangerine Dream's Hyperborea and Peter Gabriel's Passion. It is majestic landscape of feeling and sound. A true masterpiece. Randell Dunn rules!

Celestite sees the band take a deeper excursion into the crystalline synthesizer-driven domains that have long intrigued them. With the aid of producer Randall Dunn, the band unearthed a hidden sounds cap that is only loosely tethered to their familiar sound, yet is still unmistakably the work of Wolves in the Throne Room.
