The Long Road North didn't feel like a particularly significant evolution, but still. Generally they are all rather distinct. The S/T does sort of feel like an inferior The Beyond for the most part tho.

Lol what is your actual issue with Mariner? Is it just Julie Christmas?

Salvation > SATH > Dawn > The Beyond > this > Vertikal > then probably Mariner

🤔 nah, but it’s a lot better than Pika thinks it is. I do think the instrumentals take a backseat to Julie’s vox which limits its scope somewhat, but it’s just a different approach / separate entity in many ways and maybe shouldn’t be judged by the same criteria

Idk, I don’t even usually rank it with the others now

I disagree. Despite being written in the same sessions ADTF came from, I can see why they made them into separate releases.



To me, ADTF feels like walking through a forest sorrounded by creatures of the night. TLRN feels like hiking an arctic mountain, northern lights and lightning flashing the sky. I guess TLRN sounds more "colorful" and relies more on ambience. Its probably their most cinematic other than Vertikal, though that features a more industrial approach.



Edit: If anything, Mariner is the one I feel lacks a distinct personality. It doen't capture "the vastness of space" or whatever it was intended to sound like.

Beyond is mandatory top 3 and Long Road at #1 and/or ahead of the Raging River is just silly

and see raging river didn't do that much for me, but I was still riding high on ADTF so I should give it another try admittedly
