Background
Grace Submerged was produced by Herbrand Larsen, who also plays keyboards and was the engineer on some albums of Enslaved. Ivar Bjørnson (guitarist for this band) makes an appearance here, 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.
