Recorded in 2008 and 2009, I Trollens Skugga is the first EP by my newest musical venture, Colwyn. The album is full of all sorts of prog, metal, and rock sounds, and is both the hopeful beginning of things to come by Colwyn and the last hurrah for my time in the Seattle music scene, as I am presently moving to Hawai'i for some wacky new adventures. The album was recorded, as the title suggests to any Swedish-readers who might have noticed it, in the shadow of The Troll. I hope you enjoy it.
