I hope an official date is released soon. At least they provided an update on their website about the status of the album.

Perhaps it was my rock bottom expectations but this album has a great sound. Let's just forget the last album and ep. The ultimate hipster black metal band have returned.

Just because some hipsters like them, doesn't make them "hipster black metal"
Looking forward to buying this

No but there's no bigger band that appeals more to hipsters (though Deathspell Omega are giving them a run for their money) thus they are a hipster black metal band. It's not a snipe at their music, rather the culture that has grown around them.

I still have to understand why they have a hipster fanbase (and by the way, is that true?)... I mean, they're just a (great) atmospheric black metal band. 
Meh, whatever... Their music is wonderful and that's what really matters after all.

I love the album, but every time I listen to it, it feels like the album ends too quickly. I'm always left wanting more, so I just have to spin it again - with that same result.
The music is beautiful though, feels like Two Hunters 2.0.

I wasn't crazy over this band's first three albums, but this one is clearly much better. Definitely one of the better albums of the year in my opinion.

Never heard from this band, though, with it topping the charts, I'll for sure check it out.

If it is true, its because they are from Olympia, Washington....hipster capital of the world.

I picked this up yesterday after blindly buying the new Opeth album just to be disappointed.
This lifted me out of that slump instantly, really an excellent work from WitTR. These guys are quickly becoming one of my favorite bands. They just have such a "natural" feeling approach to BM, I can't get enough.

Excellent album! While I think it is slightly less interesting compared to Fen's Epoch or any of the shoegazey-black metal- ambiance kind of records that have come out this year, it's definitely a highlight of my year. It's done just right. I hope I can find this in my record shop.

Nice one. Gave it a few listens, so may increase the score later 
Love the songs with a "prayer" feeling.

I found it very similar to Ixion's To The Void. And I mean that in a good way. Very atmospheric.

I have to agree with you on the hipster thing, I'm not usually a black metal fan, but i love wittr!
Btw, I'm not a hipster.

This album was my first proper experience with the band and I must say that I am very impressed. The variation between the ambient elements and the more straight up black metal parts is great.
I will definitely check out the rest of their discography.

Mine also. I am not a big black metal fan but when I read some reviews about this album I decided to check it out. I can tell already after a couple of spins I am gonna need a few more spins to fully get what this album has to offer. Very complex and alot going on. I think I dig it...so far...

Can anyone with a huge background in this "genre" of music suggest any other albums I might like? As you can tell by my collection the only other thing that comes close is Lantlos?

Check out the metalgaze releases from the Awards nominees.
Also try Alda, Ash Borer, Falls of Rauros, Fell Voices, Fen, Lake of Blood, Skagos...

I'm usually online, but any time you have a question in regards to black metal and you're worried I won't catch you in the forums (since I don't lurk as much anymore), just send me a PM. It's a rare thing for me not to be able to help someone with discovering new bands.
As for my absence... I kind of quit for a while. It was going to be long-term but shit didn't work out so now I'm back.

My first BM album, the genre has certainly grown on me since then.
My opinion on this album is the same, this is a great atmo black album.

I'm not much into atmospheric kind of black metal but, nevertheless, I enjoyed this album. I think that the chants, female singing and ambient parts fit quite well with raw black metal side of the band's music. Their previous record didn't leave any lasting impression upon me but "Celestial Lineage" managed to catch my attention, which led to a pleasant experience for me.
