1.5 very poor | FictionalFlames | January 15th 13 | Trust me when I tell you this - Omnos is the only thing worth the listen.

4.0 excellent | ThePalestMexican | February 27th 10 | I was honestly like all of you once, thinking this was the band's weakest moment, but it quickly grew on me. The atmosphere and theme of the album soon captivated me. It was intriguing as the music, not to mention it's a mellowful, yet powerful, & graceful listen.

2.5 average | mothergoose | April 15th 09 | As I've explored this album, I've found holes in it that have caused me to drop my rating from 3.5 to 2.5. While at times this is an energetic Gaulish folk album with true Eluveitie spirit, at others it is a dull and poorly executed meandering into dead-ends that cut tracks short of their potential. Like many of the tracks, one of the potentially strongest, "The Cauldron of Renascence," fades out into oblivion just when it's getting good. It's a build-up to nothing at all. Instead, it leads into the (perhaps intentionally) roughly-sung "Nata" which only furthered my disappointment. This plagues a lot of tracks on this album, but it doesn't have as noticeable or negative of an affect elsewhere as it does here. It feels as though all of the tracks (Other than Omnos, which is already a bit too repetitive) could have been understandably extended by at least a full minute or two. Some probably could have just been scrapped entirely, or re-written to fit better into the album. I hope part two of this project sees Eluveitie focusing more on quality rather than quantity. Otherwise (someone has to say it), they ought to stick to folk-metal. They are phenomenal at it, not so much at this.
