Mountains of Time

Mountains of Time is the third album released by the band Savoy. It is the only original Savoy studio album (apart from Mary is Coming) officially released outside of Scandinavia so far, but only in central and Western Europe. There was a limited edition with a second CD called The Bovarnick Twins, which was an EP of otherwise unavailable bonus tracks. In 2008, the track "Bottomless Pit" was featured in the Moral Orel episode "Sacrifice".
