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.
Holy shit, Emperor! That's quite a statement you've made! This arrived in the mail the other but I still have not had the time to listen to it. Maybe tomorrow early in the morning!
Yeah, I've been listening non-stop, pretty much, for the entire week since Zad's review. I'll back down a little bit from my earlier excitement, unfortunately, in an album with more than 2 hours there will be some filler. But this recording is definitely a landmark, some moments of it may never leave your mind.
