This one goes on higher rotation than most. Great album.

There has been a lot of criticism around the two vocalists joining forces on this album. I think it sounds great though. They both have great voices and they are different enough to complement each other. I do however hope that we continue to see albums from Vintersorg. I don't see Borknagar doing this on every album so I say lets enjoy it. This whole album is good just like every thing they do in my personal opinion. One of the greats proven by many years of consistently stellar material.

It's a good thing this album doesn't suck! Otherwise, I'd be calling it "Turd", LOL! :lol:

I bought this on vinyl. Beautiful. Can't stop listening to it. Vortex is just an amazing singer.
'Turd' - funny shit Jeff

you know I bought this album about eight months ago but am yet to listen to it, other stuff just keeps getting in the way, may have to give it a spin later

It is a shame because this has happened with me and their album previous to this. I mean I bought it not very long ago but I still haven't given it a listen.

just seems right when I think I'll finally give it a spin I realise "oh wait I still haven't listened to ..." or I go and buy something else and listen to that, I'll have to find it now before I can give it a spin

ok given this a spin now, ummmm to be honest I am surprised it scored so highly, I mean there's a couple good songs on it but really I haven't enjoyed the album as a whole, perhaps I'm missing something but I'd score this at best an eighty

Hey I have a ton of albums I still haven't listen to. Procrastination is a nasty habit of mine.

well I got around to it so now I have listened to everything I own at least once (and some stuff ONLY once) my thoughts second listen through I'd score this album about a seventy, number of songs I liked on second listen dropped from four to two
