Drowning the Light
From the Abyss
This album is a grower. Was initially disappointed with the way this album was written compared to the EP's and splits released over the past year. The melody and song structures seemed boring. After a few listens, I became addicted, and after many more I'm certain this is one of DTL's best efforts. ESSENTIAL modern black metal.

A unique sounding album, even for a Panopticon release. On its own, the black metal aspect sounds as if it was composed by a veteran of the genre.

This is an excellent black metal album. Obviously the below reviewer doesn't know much about black metal. Stop focusing on the aesthetics and technical points of things and review the actual music, instead of sharing your opinion on the guitar lines and "out of time" drumming. Maybe you'd be better off reviewing power metal or something.
Listen to Possessed and Immortal. Seriously, that song is beautiful.
