Grace Submerged

Grace Submerged, the second and final album by Norwegian doom/gothic metal band Octavia Sperati, was released in May 2007 via Candlelight Records.

Background
Grace Submerged was produced by Herbrand Larsen, former keyboardist of Enslaved. Ivar Bjørnson of the same band makes an appearance on the album, co-writing "Dead End Poem".

The album features an interpretation of the Phil Lynott-penned "Don't Believe A Word", which Terrorizer Magazine called "a chilling ballad". Krister Dreyer ("Morfeus") plays the piano and keyboards in that song and the samples in "Submerged".

The song "Moonlit" was released as a music video.
