5 stars A beautiful masterpiece. It's for sure one of my favorite post-metal records of all time. It's considerably inaccessible, though, so it might be necessary to give it multiple listens. While there's some records that focus on atmosphere or heaviness, The Mantle is capable of focusing in both at the same. There's tracks like And The Great Cold Death Of The Earth or Desolation Song that are purely orgasmic ballads, and tracks like I Am The Woden Doors and You Were But A Ghost In My Arms that are pure ass-breaking metal tracks.

It's definitely a must for Post Metal fans, and worth a listen for anyone. Five Stars.
