I can't wait for the new album. Their material from The Mantle, Ashes against the Grain and The White are nigh-on flawless records.

Truly fantastic band, I have The Mantle. I rarely listen to it only because it requires a specific mood to have full effect. Apparently they have released two songs from the upcoming album for streaming. I havn't heard them though but this thread has me thinking about it

Got The Mantle yesterday finally; one of my favourite albums ever after the first listen methinks. Amazing.

I was turned onto Agalloch by an internet pal in the UK. He said "I can't believe this band is from America." I listened and I'd have to agree. It's different than what I'd expect from an American band, but that is no complaint! Agalloch are one of the very few metal bands I still listen to, and the thing I love most about them is that their vocals are really easy to tune out. The music is very pleasing and can set the mood for a good night. 

Saw a discuss about The White EP. It's pretty good, but their aren't many vocals and a few sound clips from the original The Wicker Man. Overall, the music was alright. I think we're all anxiously looking forward to the new album! I hope it's as majestic as the previous releases.

Oh man I am so tempted to go for the leak. But I'm making myself wait for the release. Everyone so far seems utterly impressed though

Listening to Ashes Against The Grain for the first time, fairly certain Agalloch are shaping up to be one of my favourite bands ever.
