LMI has it's moments, but it's nowhere near as good as this. Most of the other stuff isn't that amazing though.

I dont know if this is THAT much better tbh - Garm's effort is pretty average and Sverd is just mainly wanking with swiss cheese. This would have been downright awful if it wasnt for Ihsahn and Hellhammer absolutely owning, imo.

I love Garm on this album. I just really enjoy the timber of his voice.



Radical Cut IS probably the best track though.

You guys should check out Vulture Industries if you like this. I started a review for that one a few years ago but never finished it.

Well The Dystopia Journals is better than every Arcturus album except this one. It's very similar stylistically except it's a little more sinister sounding and the guitars are a lot meatier. Not as much piano-humping too. The vocalists is like a baritone Garm.
