With a distinctive cover version of the track Gnosis, Jääportit paid homage to the avant-garde masters Ulver. The interpretation reimagines the original through a frosty electronic lens, with electric guitar from Vesa Partti (of Sadkarma) laid over shifting ambient textures and mechanical rhythms, honoring the dark, ever-evolving spirit of the legendary Norwegian collective. Running eleven minutes, it is widely regarded as one of the strongest contributions on the release.

Reviews and comments

Jääportit morphs ‘Gnosis’ into an 11-minute monster of menacing atmospheres, rolling beats, and female vocals; it’s much, much stronger than the original.

Myös kotomaamme toiselle edustajalle eli Jääporteille täytyy antaa tunnustus fiilistelevien konekomppien ja naislaulujen käytöstä Gnosis-kappaleessa.
