The album was recorded in March 2005 in Arezzo, Italy, and offers a sonic journey that is both meditative and thought-provoking. "Glaciers in Extinction" is a testament to Fabbriciani's innovative approach to contemporary music, making it a compelling listen for fans of avant-garde and experimental genres.
