Not gonna lie, I'm digging this, but I much prefer the two albums before it and the debut as well. Still very good stuff though.

the two albums before is expected for you (and I agree re Nighttime). The debut is kinda insane tho lol

This one takes a long time to digest, mostly due to the length but also because of the stylistic change

a lot of their best material is after this mind. Souvenirs might be their ‘heaviest’ (not musically but maybe darkest) album.

I seem to be one of the only ones that really digs the debut super hard lol. I definitely have to get on the two after this as well, but I need more time with this. Hopefully it grows even more. I do dig it a lot though.

The debut does have its charms.

I think taking your time is wise although I’m already anticipating good things to come

Debut has that rawness that I love for early death/doom. This definitely needs more time to sink in. Massive album for sure.

You're not alone bro. Love the debut and the freaking demos as well. Speaking of which, make sure you check the song Downfall if you can. Very raw but it rules so much.

Preferring the debut to this is such a wild take I think I have to respect it lol. Putting it over like Nighttime Birds or Souvenirs is where I'd draw the line though

Tbf, the debut is a lot more my speed than stuff like this although my pallette has expanded tremendously over the years lol.
