Answer: counted carrion crows

"Thirteen Autumns and a Widow" came from the "Cruelty and the Beast" album, which seems to be a fan favourite. The drum sound, however, is widely regarded through fan forums as very clean, trebly and crisp. Not particularly heavy. The album itself, a concept album about the life of Countess Elizabeth Bathory, with its album cover of her in a bath of blood, is anything but clean, trebly and crisp!
