Before Norway's In The Woods... released a trio of exceptional albums, the legendary and lengthy "Isle of Men" demo was in my lucky little hands and pleasing my ears. This cassette clocked in at over 46 minutes which is insane for a demo as you all know. "A Return to the Isle of Men" is a re-released version of this legendary demo with a couple subtle differences; a rehearsal version of "Heart of the Ages" and a new song at the time titled "...and all this from which was and will never come again... (Child of Universal Tongue)". The original demo was released in 1993, the release posted here in 1996. Early In The Woods.. was Pagan and Naturist themed progressive black metal which obviously inspired bands such as Agalloch. In The Woods... would eventually morph into the band Green Carnation.
