5.0 classicMuzz79 | March 7th 23

Floydian and Pethian, Enslaved continue to explore new territories of haunting, hypnotic, expansive progressive blackened metal. Everything has its correct placement with the title track the perfect closer.

4.5 superbChino smoking it up! | March 20th 23

I dug Utgard ngl, specially how it flows. E not so much. Axioma is a fucking banger. And this is actually a different level from Utgard. More nuanced and intricate. With more special places to explore. This sounds as if mastodon went bm in some tracks, but this has much more, from meshuggary to opeth and still leaves space for several 70s prog takes. I keep switching my fave tracks on this. Borderline 5 prog metal gem.

Other than "The Eternal Sea", it wasn't my thing at all. I didn't get it, and I didn't like it.

3.7 greatErwann S. STAFF | March 14th 23

Enslaved doing Enslaved. Heimdal is ultimately nothing surprising for seasoned listeners, but the band's brand of blackened progressive metal is as expansive and well-written as ever. Props for the lil folky chords in "Congelia" or "Forest Dweller", as well as for the dynamic riff in the second half of the closer.

the enslaved lottery has churned up a decent album this time, highlight in caravans

3.5 greatTrey STAFF | March 3rd 23

My main issue with this band has always been the dry, throaty, rasp of the vocalist. My enjoyment of each album seems to hinge on how high he's mixed and how often he growls. That hasn't changed here, but I do like this one quite a bit. The music is your typical progressive meets black metal Enslaved sound, but the vocal melodies are still improving and the music is more memorable.
