What attracted me to Swallow The Sun in the first place? Hard to say, but it was definitely their take on combining elements of doom and melodic death metal and putting their own spin on the outcome. And while not originators of this not easily defined genre, Swallow The Sun stayed somewhat true to their basic formula over the years.

Cathedral Walls is kick ass song, other songs are either meh or boring.

You can only really like this album if you like the "doomier" aspects of the band's trademark sound. Was a grower for me in that respect.

Stunning Cactus - 16.06.2014 at 12:45

I really dig Night Will Forgive Us. Always my favorite song from this album.
