This has serious top 10, even top 5 potential for me. The funeral doom elements (mainly thinking Arcana Coelestia/Urna) are sparse but a thoughtful change of pace, the black metal base rivals Drudkh/Xasthur/Burzum/SMRC era DsO's best moments, the dark ambient parts are usually pluses rather than minuses, and the orchestral parts, like the first track, are excellent.
2 hours and 15 minutes never went by so quickly, frankly I'm staggered at the weight of this recording, unlike anything since Negura Bunget's Om.
