Been a while since I've listened to these guys.

Remastered demos. Pretty good. Wonder if they'll ever get to new material.

Still great in places, but I really think the following albums do much the same thing in a far better way...

Exuvia, sure, but you are arguing Thule Grimoires does too? Interesting, would have to disagree there.

How is Christopher Johnsson's creative stamina in comparison to say a decade or two ago, Husker? Is the comparison even reasonable or palatable?

I slept on this one. Their darkhorse masterpiece.

Yeah I'd say TG too. The focus on, respectively, tribal and gothic elements on those albums elevates the base material a lot, without them BV seems lacking in retrospect. But I think you always liked it more than I did!

I thought the Leviathan trilogy was good. I've always been a huge fan of the "Lemuria" album. These are somewhat different styled albums but as I said before, still good.

I loved their Lemuria/Sirius B albums so much. I will have to see if I can like their newer outputs a bit more with consideration that they are still decent and acceptable Therion releases. Thanks, Husker.
