Liking this one more than 'Satanized', guitars are great and the 70s/80s horror movie vibe is a lot of fun.

The guitar in this song sounds like it was recorded in a garage. Song doesn’t really work for me and reeks of band trying to sound heavy again.

The mix is definitely a little too bright at times - especially on the chorus.

The low end really needed some extra weight, if you compare this mix with 'Cirice' it's night and day.

Better than Sanitized yes, but still a far cry from what this band used to be. We'll see.

Opus Eponymous is still the only album that really does it for me. Don’t think this is gonna change that opinion.

I already really enjoyed Satanized, love this one way more though. Those harmonies in the chorus are such a treat to the ears

I miss when Tobias would write songs with the old band members rather than the external songwriters he works with now, God I miss that Meliora era

Idk… I liked Satanized quite a bit but this is fucking amazing. I don’t think anything will ever dethrone Meliora for me but if there’s another three or four songs this good it’ll come damn close.

Better than Satanized, catchier with a pretty decent main riff. I'm still not a fan of the production though; the guitar tone sounds very flimsy.

This is probably the closest they've gotten to Opus minus the synthetic. Really good return to their Gothic roots here.

The leads going in and out of that last chorus are so fucking good. Yeah… Satanized was fine but this is that good shit.

Kind of agree with the production sounding flimsy. This is gonna sound absolutely massive live tho, and I’m really thinking about selling my tickets and getting better seats

Tobias has said this is going to be an introspective album so I would expect to see songs from every era pf their discography.

"Tobias has said this is going to be an introspective album so I would expect to see songs from every era pf their discography."

I guess we were due for the "this album represents all our previous albums" record anyway.

Repugnant to Ghost truly is the most insane artistic progression
