Serpent is their worst album easily, but it still rules.

This is the quintessential agalloch album for me altho In the shadow of our pale companion is the quintessential agalloch song

Funny enough John hates the production on this album. He doesn't like Fire Above/Ice Below either so I guess his opinion is invalid here.

Yeah I don't really take note of artists opinions regarding their own work, besides its impossible for him to look at this without bias because from what ive heard the recording process was strenous

He hated how artificial and modern it sounded. That's why they recorded Marrow on tape.

The Mantle is the real 5. It could as well be my favorite album of all time. It's that good

John was pretty trv kvult so I'm sure he hated how clean this is. It's hard to see the nightfall and be called to like a river of shadows with such clear production.

I don't mind clean production as long it isn't obvious overproduced crap. Never had a problem with the production on NeO albums either.

Marrow is incredible, its more traditional bm production shocked me a bit after hearing this one but its great, for me its tied 3rd best agalloch with PF and the White

From the guitar sound at the beginning, you're just helpless in getting totally drawn in. Limbs is amazing!

When I first listened to this, I wasn't even intending to listen to the whole thing, just sample the first track. Limbs drew me in and I ended up listening to the whole thing. Fantastic opener.

One of my favorite songs ever for sure, followed by another contender.

Also if you haven't already I highly recommend you check out Blut Aus Nord - Memoria Vetusta II. I'm recommending it to every man and his dog right now because I feel its really underappreciated. Its more pure bm and complex than agalloch but just as beautiful, youll probably dig it if you dig this.
