Королева Смокв by Sunset Wings
The album was conceived as 'something between gnostic catechism and courtois songbook'. This story is a journey into love and exile from wisdom. This story is about meetings that never happened, meetings that transformed us and possibly will last inside you. This story is is not so much about the Queen of Figs but of a shadow we saw her through.
