I finally got this album a few days ago. It started off as average for me but now it has grown on me.

It's really close between this, Viva Emptiness and LFDGD.

But i have to say all songs but 1 have grown on me, each one individually (the exception is The Itch, which is a bit boring).

they've produced too many good albums so the next one is going to suck hard.

Definitely get Viva Emptiness and then Last Fair Deal Gone Down. Those are pretty much essential 'new' Katatonia. But if you liked Brave Murder Day more than this get Dance of December Souls next, and then just continue through their discography.You really can't make a wrong turn; all of their CD's are great in their own ways.

This is an excellent and sadly overlooked album. Worth getting the deluxe 5.1 version and listening to through a good system as the production is outstanding.

I was kind of stoked when I thought for a second that Steven Wilson was joining Katatonia. He'd be a good fit even though it wouldn't happen.
