I think I prefer True Traitor to this thus far, but there is a lot to it that I could imagine one of these weeks becoming sucked into this album.

I didn't think this was very good, but maybe it will click later.

Hm, interesting, thought you guys would dig this. Got Ruins of Beverast vibes at moments, and think it's much better than True Traitor which even Whitehead says was sloppy and poor.

It is getting better with repeated listens, a grower type of album.

I made the mistake of going in and expecting Sublevels again, which is what I always do with this band.

Zad's right. This is basically everything I remember enjoying about True Traitor, but done better.

I really liked this one on initial listens. Not sure if it will stand the test of time though.

I went from 1: dislike 2: neutral 3: like 3+: like a shit ton.

This album is genuinely morbid. Subtle and intricately crafted with a strong doze of atmosphere without being bold or overwhelming. Tremendous job, Wrest, you evil genius.
