"Chants of Old blew me away! I had a preconceived idea of what a CD of chants would sound like, but Karagan gave me so much more. It’s not often I feel I have completely left my physical shell and traveled elsewhere propelled by the power of music alone. Thank you for a very beautiful experience."
Edain McCoy
With Chants of Old, Karagan addresses what has been a dearth in intelligent, meaningful, and beautiful music dedicated to the Old Ways. An
unabashed and proud celebration of Pagan lore and spirituality, Chants of Old makes an ideal accompaniment to your rituals and meditations."

Chants of Old is the debut album by Alexandrian Witch and artist, Karagan. Dedicated to the Gods and Goddesses of the Old Religion, it is a unique experience of vocal enchantment. In styles variously evocative of Gregorian and Buddhist chants, Karagan masterfully layers vocalizations, breathing, and choruses to create a mesmerizing tapestry of sacred sound. Entirely vocalized (no instruments are used), Karagan and the collected talents of Priests and Priestesses of the Craft use the power of voice alone to call upon the Old Ones.
