Holy Vacants did eventually surpass this for me personally, but this is certainly more consistent. This is as lean as it gets. Probably better than a few of my 4.5s (interesting, will ponder)

I appreciate the variation and overall journey of HV despite its imperfections (*cough* Burning Mirror *cough*), it feels like a monumental event with a whole host of transcendental moments.

Hmmm probs gotta be Agalloch or whichever Death album, but you can cheat and drop Dead Magic instead (benchmark 4, huge crossover appeal to metalheads and darkwave entryists, easy days)

Death - one definitely needs to go, can't decide which. I'll check

Agalloch - hell no, Ashes holds up

I love Anna Von but you may be onto something there. Pretty sure that album wasn't a 4.5 last I checked, but gave it a free one-off pass for reasons unknown

Opeth - over Ghost Reveries? lol, but yes 1 x Opeth needs to go as well and it won't be Morningrise

Oh I didn't actually see Ghost Reveries, hmm. I'm not sure how it holds up as I haven't listened fully in years, but I know I found Still Life to not be 4.5 worthy on my last listen

these guys are proper Sputcore innit? This has a puny 259 ratings on RYM (344 here, which given the comparative size of our little community is quite the surprise to me)

Ghost Reveries was dropped by the way, so pending???
