Wow...I just heard them for the first time. It's amazingly good. If it's any indication of how Damnation is going to sound, I really can't wait.

Mordet I Gorottan is the only song from this project, which I have expectation will be a harbinger of the prog album (I think that word will describe it more than mellow...), that has been heard by anyone without connections to Akerfeldt...

HOLY FUCK! Thank you for making it available.
I'm playing it now... it's absolutely gorgeous. I'd love to hear a full album like this.

"SÖRSKOGEN
This is my own thing, again, nothing really serious, I just enjoy doing this progressive stuff! Sörskogen, which is the place where I grew up, has really made its special impact on me. Every time I visit the place, I am overwhelmed with nostalgy! All the tracks are about Sörskogen, lyrics in Swedish, quite hazy to be honest! I´ve only recorded one track "for real", at Dan´s new studio with him on drums, keyboards and bass, and myself on lead vocals and guitars. I reckon that we will record more in the future. The tracks I´ve done are called "Mordet i grottan" (The murder in the cave), "Stupet" (The steep slope), "Den första Maj" (The first of May) and "Byan"! I´ve even done a video for "Mordet" filmed with a old super-8 camera, which also turned out pretty cool! The video is dircted by Fredrik Odefjärd. The sounds is somewhere between Camel, Solarplexus and Genesis or something like that!"
So, it basically IS Mikael.
Edit: With Swano, of course.

It's really cool to hear him sing in swedish... the lyrics goes like this(I'm not that good on english):
A summer once ago
The warmth sweeps through
We smile, laughing
But a strange calmness take place
Somewhere in the forest
The cave where we played as kids
A harmed body, in eternal sleep
Robbed the dawn of life
Who murdered him
Who took his life
Nobody knows, yet today
Throw the darkness over our
Light that shines
Takes us to better days
His soul wanders further
We slowly go back
The trail leads us home
The day is soon to end
We try to forget
The murder in the cave
Who murdered him
Who took his life
Nobody knows, yet today
Who murdered him
Who took his life
Nobody knows, yet today

here you have:
En sommar en gång
värmen sveper igenom
vi ler skrattande
men ett lömskt lugn infinner sig
någonstans i skogen
grottan där vi lekte som barn
en sargad kropp i evig sömn
berövad livets gryning
barnet som mördade honom
barnet som tog hans liv
ingen vet, ens idag
kastar mörker över vår idyll
Ett ljus som lyser ömt
ta oss mot bättre dagar
hans själ vandrar vidare
vi går sakta tillbaka
stigen leder oss hem
dagen har lidit mot sitt slut
vi försöker glömma
mordet i grottan
barnet som mördade honom
barnet som tog hans liv
ingen vet, ens idag
