The Grain closes the song perfectly tbh.

it's not that it's noisy, it just seems to lack any direction and provides a really lackluster ending to the album. i'm not saying it's the only flawed thing about this tho

First half is a 5 and Our Fortress Is Burning just completely derails everything

Our Fortress 1 and 2 are great though. Especially 2, it has what is essentially the climax for the whole album

I love most of the second half. Bloodbirds is an amazing song.

It would be a plain 5 if the atmospheric tracks never existed... That brings down the rating for me

By atmospheric I'm talking about the closer and this mountain...

Kind of cool to know that Rush's Test for Echo song "Resist" directly inspired "Fire Above, Ice Below". Been jamming this quite a bit lately. 'Tis the season for Agalloch.

Oh really? I'll have to relisten to that one. Pretty great when two of your fave bands from two different genres are inspirations for each other.

Yeah indeed. Might jam this later, but in a doom mood.
