Agreed. I enjoyed Where You Are Lost And I Belong too this time, didn't really care for it earlier. It's nice and brooding.

And Marble Soul.

I think one part that I'm a little iffy about here is the pacing. There's something wrong with it but I can't really put my finger on it.

I love Ihsahn's cleans here.



That melodic break in Arcana Imperii is feels central.

This felt so much of a letdown for me after Arktis. Might need to revisit, didn't listen to it much last year.

Definitely give it another go man.



This is a lot more subtle than Arktis really, takes a while to seep in.

It's still in the lower regions of his discog for me quality wise. Great album nonetheless, Ihsahn always rules. He just knows.

This album is so up and down, some moments rival the best in his discog (Millennia, Wake, Samr).



But then there's songs that fall short (One Less Enemy, In Rites of Passage).

Yeah agreed. And the production still bothers me a bit. It's very plastic sounding or something. On the cd version at least.

It's nothing major, sounds decent on headphones but it's extremely polished.



Would've preferred a rawer tone to the guitars ala Arktis.

That's what I mean, yeah. Guy has such a fantastic discog, none below a 3.5 for me.



4.5: After=Arktis.

3.5: The Adversary=Amr

Ooh yeah, it's awesome.

I'm shuffling through his solo discog at the moment. Truly impressive work.
