Inspired by time spent in the wilderness above the arctic circle.

Sasu Ripatti returns with his first album as Vladislav Delay in five years.

Rakka was debuted during live AV performances at Atonal and Unsound last year, and draws inspiration from time spent in the wilderness on the arctic tundra.
