Dol Guldur is still my favorite, but this and Stronghold aren't too far behind it.

It's not that I don't like Oath Bound, I think it's good, just nowhere near as good as the others I mentioned.

Honestly this is probably my least favorite other than Lugburz.

Oath Bound is more nuanced and less straightforward than their other albums, which is why I think most people don't like it as much.

Oath Bound has some of the best melodies they've ever come up with. And the atmosphere is just so, unique really. I love it.

Even though I don't like it as much as some of their others, Land of the Dead could very well be the best song they've ever made.

Agreed. I think there's a lot of subtlety in the way the melodies are layered and stuff.

Mortal Heroes seems to get forgotten a lot too and it's a pretty swell record.

I'd rather have that than an iPod. These things fucking blow.

Yeah as i browse over all their stuff now i forgot how awesome their progression has been. I mean they've obviously had the same style since Dol Guldur, but each record changes something up and adds a new element.

Like Nightshade Forests used the guitar as sort of a droning, hazy backdrop instead of a source of melody while Mortal Heroes was much more focused on the guitar work, so on and so fourth.

Bottom line, band is good. /rant
