Gardens of grief was a mini-lp not a full length album....
for example: That's why many here mentioned Emperor In the nightside as a debut cause the split with enslaved was also mini-lp........
Anyway big deal.....

Finally! New 2003 Heir Apparent! Terry Gorle has Mike Blair (ex-Etheria) on vocals. This demo was conceived, written and recorded in a day. Sounds like the SAVIOR device in the song could be a part of a concept album.
