Album Rating: 3.0

I think I'm gonna check this out, it's been getting a bit of hype...

Not surprisingly, I'm not sure about this. I have never been a fan of droning black metal stuff, especially when the songs are way too long.

actually there are a lot of parts on this album that involve lower drone notes/chords while progressions/melodies are played. pretty sure he wasn't using the phrase in a negative manner

Ahh I see, I thought he meant it was boring. But yeah there are some sections like that, and they are done very well.

@devilsown
i want to hear black metal or death metal that incorporates the use of the sitar.

I'm so glad I picked this up a few days ago. Not a fan of BM but this is incredible.

there is no way on earth this is classic, but it's pretty damn good.

Their last album was better. I stand by that. This is too similar with not enough added.

Album Rating: 3.5

After hearing Diadem of 12 Stars I'd have to say it's a little better. This album seems more or less like an extension of Diadem.



My main problem with Diadem of 12 Stars is that there are 2 riffs that are supposed to be transitional but are just awkward and unnecessary and they stick out like a sore thumb among the rest of the eargasmicness.

Album Rating: 4.0

Not as good as Diadem of 12 Stars, but its still a good album. I really like the first track, it sets a great mood for the rest of the album. And the last one is fantastic as well



This one is a little too repetitive for its own good.This Message Edited On 11.28.07

Never heard of this band until a few days ago, got the album, and was rocked. The whole album surprised me, and I surprised myself by playing it over and over. This is why sites like sputnik are just so damn good for the brain.

I take back what I said a earlier this album rules, and it crushes the other one.

Album Rating: 5.0

It started out as a 4 for me, but after listening to it again I bumped it to a 5.

I like this, but the drums annoy the hell out of me.

Album Rating: 4.5

For what I've heard this yr in metal, "Two Hunters" and Primordial's TTND have the best riffs. Crushing waves of melodic strain.

Behold the Vastness and Sorrow is such a phat track.
