Don't like that song tbh, the chorus is pretty bad.



Hunters of the Sky is underrated though, huge riff.

Ugh that descending, jagged riff on the chorus of Birchmen is too good.

album has aged real well. I'd 5 it if, you know, it wasn't surrounded by two other albums I built my life upon.

I dig this more than CTS but Leviathan is easily the best for me.

idk Evil, this has a pretty sweet concept.

"It's about climbing up a mountain and the different things that can happen to you when you're stranded on a mountain, in the woods, and you're lost. You're starving, hallucinating, running into strange creatures. You're being hunted. It's about that whole struggle." - Troy

This has a few songs that hold it back from being one of their best: Capillarean Crest, Hand of Stone, This Mortal Soil.



The first half of the record is so good though, especially the first 3 songs m/

Crest has some of my favorite guitar interplay ever, idk what people are bothered by. Hand of Stone is a little straightforward but has a great, unusual rollicking feel to it and a big payoff. Mortal S...you know what, either you like threse or you don't. *shrug*

Crest is amazing, in fact it's probably one of my favourites here.

First 3 songs are among their best.



Nothing gets me hyped more than that opening drum fill on Wolf is Loose m/

yeah crest is a highlight of their whole discography, not just this record, imo



but this does go on a little long, i think if hand of stone, siberian divide, and hunters of the sky were cut, it would be essentially flawless



and i am shocked and disturbed to hear that opinion on this mortal soil bigpleb, that track is a banger
