Sometimes I read what other people are saying about an album and wonder how we possibly listened to the same thing.

The debut album as a whole didn't quite stand out, but the title track was and is a banger, so I'll approach this with the hope of at least a couple more choice cuts at that level

It's a good album, with a great death doom sound, it has the traditional trademark riffs, that are deep, heavy, melodic and slow chugging, and her vocals are also great, and sound so effortless. Along with Saturnus This band shows that the Danes mean buisness when it comes to death doom.

This is good, good grungy riffing madness, some melodic parts and howling vocals that you can not tell male of female.

It's so true, her vocals are just as strong and harsh as any male vocalist imo.

It's interesting to see you guys focusing positively on the vocals, I liked them on the debut album and I think the higher pitched screams still sound good here, but I find the growls really offputting at times on this album - not throughout, but more than enough times they sounded hoarse and strained. They're also very high in the mix, so overall I found them to detract from the record at times, although that is just from one listen, so with repeat spins I might find myself feeling differently about them

I more paid attention that its all female band, thats why vocals was on focus, but they composed good music, interesting also small melodic parts was there.

I liked the vocals on the debut more, and you are right about the growls being somewhat high in the mix and strained here. But the songwriting is better on this album, I think.
