It's been a while since I've listened to Arkona, but their last album surprised me in a
good way. To me it sounds like melodic black metal which the female vocals make the
overall sound hauntingly beautiful. It is far too long and after the 40th minute it
starts to sound tedious and repetitive, which is a shame as it had the making of a very
good album. Will still listen to the first half of the album though.
Later edit: It started to grow on me with every listen. I still consider the second part
of the album weaker than the first, but overall it is quite the album.
