kinda disappointing. a lot of tension-building without much payoff. the final third of the album is good, but at that
point the momentum is kinda ruined. since the album was apparently inspired by eerie backwoods folklore, i was
expecting a more creepy story progression and some pretty sharp emotions (fear, confusion, despair, being lost,
etc) but most of this was a bit flat. there's some highlights ("Sun Tower", "the Rising Portal" and maybe "Orion is Dead"),
but a lot of forgettable material.
