This. The greatest moment from the album in my opinion, and one of the greatest moments in music, period.

This album is quite good but its Agalloch's worst by far IMO, Certain songs go on for longer then they should and their is a real lack of atmosphere on this record compared to their previous and subsequent albums, Its still good but its their worst.

I thought the same, but today I gave another spin to Pale Folklore and now I'm not so sure which one I prefer.

It's their best album. The only downside is its last track (Part III: The Grain), which I don't really dislike, but I don't like it a lot either. The Mantle is great, but I'm not a fan of instrumental songs to be honest. Pale Folklore is great, but it's just badly produced. Marrow of the Spirit is very good as well, but I don't like it nearly as much as the others.

This is a great album. I don't think it's as good as Pale Folklore or The Mantle, but I do like it more than Marrow of the Spirit (which was still very good).

Just watching snow falling while listening to this masterpiece. It's awesome experiance 
It's so nice to see this album in 12th place in 'top 200 of all time', so well deserved. Definitely one of the best albums i've ever heard!

I prefer this to The Mantle. Beautifully done.
I wish Scars of the Shattered Sky wasn't just available on vinyl. It's pretty sweet.

Better be good as i have just ordered the vinyl, haven't heard it before just assumed it would be good because i liked the mantle,pale folklore and Marrow of the Spirit so much.
I like what was said in the first post "In today's world of overplayed musical styles and boring sameness, a few bands stand out as innovators. Agalloch from Portland, Oregon is one of those bands.".........so true so true

The Mantle used to be in top 10. These two are modern classics of metal.

I still can't decide which album I love more, this or The Mantle.. I just adore these albums. Worthy to be in the top 20 of all time In my opinion. 10/10 a masterpiece of music not just metal.

Overall a very good album, nothing to complain about, but after 10 spins or so I'm having trouble why people would go so far as calling it a "modern classic" - seems a bit of a pedestal to me.
Don't get me wrong. As this doom/atmospheric style is actually right up my alley, I really enjoy the album. However, at the same time I'm not hearing anything that ground-breaking or breath-taking (besides Our Fortress Is Burning... II - Bloodbirds).
Also, the second song Falling Snow still annoys the hell out of me - that beyond bland opening riff - I thought to myself "what the hell is this a pop punk song?"
