16 Melancholic Atmospheric Exp Prog Post Doom/Rock
added by Mike
"A beautiful album from start to finish, with my only issue being my tendency to skip A Desolation Song, which is a bit too folky for me at times. Regardless, the rest of the album definately makes up for it." (DetoxScission, , )

Melodic Prog Post Black

"This is a wonderful album. Dark, relaxing, poetic, full of folkish influences... very fascinating. It would have been a masterpiece but unfortunately the (harsh, black metal-like) vocals are not of the same quality as the music and they often feel out of place."

Bleak Atmospheric Exp Prog Post Black

"A decent album, although I must admit that I don't understand how others can think of it as a masterpiece, I do understand how someone could like this album much more than I do. It's really repetitive, mostly "eventless" and the occasional growling vocals are uncalled for in my opinion. The folk elements are implemented very nicely, but in the heavy parts the drums are often a bit out of sync with the rest of the band."
