Damn, the keys/synths on this album are really fucking annoying. I prefer their two albums with Garm.

Havent heard much of the album but it sounds like Borknagar. From the first 5 seconds of the first song you know its them so not sure why all the terrible ratings....It sounds exactly like them with a different synth sound so unless many of you never liked them before I hardly see why there would be ratings of 4/10. If you consider it boring then you probably havent liked Borknagar to start with...because thats their sound.

Not bad, but not so good. Keyboards to revise.

The album is like people shrieking at the same time without any bottom line. Production sucks and songwriting pen is not on its sharpest. Letdown.

Bitter disappointment... One of the most expected of the year (at least to me ) was already a huge waste of time...
Of course is decent and not horrible, but thats not even close to enough. Ill follow everyone here who simply labeled this album ''BORING''.

Good album, seems people just don't like Borknagar. (Boring? ) I enjoy their style and thought it was a worthwhile listen- One of the best albums I've heard from them.

Nope just the later albums, I guess I should check them out.

Garm albums rule. They have spiraled into a wash of prog rock and "black metal". Not a good combo. They can't be considered good or bad in my opinion. They are an average band riding the glory of Garm and Vortex. Vintersorg makes the band sound identical to his solo project. They should just disband due to extreme staleness.

That is partially the reason I enjoy this album so much, I may be the last person on MS who likes Vintersorg. I do like the first two Borknagar albums as well, but find it strange that people consider this band stale or boring when compared to those efforts. I think the melodies are very memorable and the production is much more dynamic, vocal layers, bizarre keyboards and all. I know that in itself doesn't make a band interesting, but there is just something about this album I find intriguing...

I like it, Borknagar being one of my favorite bands ever, and Vintersorg aswell, the introduction of Vintersorg-ish elements makes it great, but their old albums are better! Still, very enjoyable album.

Oh well that's what's thinking, this sounds more like a Vintersorg album than Borknagar.
It's a good album, yet it's too smoth, just too well balanced, i think it needed some disonance or disbalance here and there.

Lol ok
tbh, I actually initially explained my post but I got really drunk and confused, and Introspekrieg quoted me too fast before I could edit it, so I just said fuck it and made things simple 
I've never been too fond of the stuff with Vintersorg, but Universal is probably my least favorite.

The grim and eerie atmosphere is still present, although the lack of variety in lyrics, music wise can be a problem, unfortunately.
