5 stars Having turned into an avantgarde puppet over the years, I have grown out of my old inane banter metaleer stages. However this band is a semi-god that is infinite and unscraped by time, you do not judge them after you've seemingly grown in the ways of sophistication, they judge you.

The album personally allowed me to visualize like none other. it's not drums, nor guitar, in fact I can't picture the music coming from any band what so ever. It is a fantasy celestial, the music is like stillness in another world.

If growls and eerie vocals are not in your diversity then I advise you to be careful on the purchasing. But it has always been a firm belief of mine, that once you have the culture and understanding to appreciate growling (even if it takes time), music will be more open to you, and make itself known in dimensions which you have not conceptualised yet. For it is said that if you can care for the worst, then you can learn to care for anything.
