I like everything they've done since The Winter Wake, even the abhorred The Scythe. This one lets you expect something darker than RST. I'm quite enthusiastic about this.

Hm, I was expecting a bit more in the folkish veins since they generally have been marketing this album as "enough of the commercial shit, back to older aspects" but it's good. The last three songs (- Ophele) + Khanjar are some killer tracks imo.

To be honest I can barely find anything to like about this one either. Red Silent Tides sounded like they were picking things up, but this doesn't leave me impressed at all.

The cover does really suck, but the album is close to a masterpiece. Back to their initial folky tunes.

Excellent! Finally Elvenking reminds us why we love them.
Their recent albums were fun and all but seriously... nothing compared to the songwriting and especially the performance skill and energy of the early classics. This one DOES compare

After listening to this album I come here waiting to find really bad critics about it but for my surprise, I find the opposite. I promise I'll give it another try because I love Elvenking but so far the album has been REALLY boring...

For myself is excellent, but sadly I must to say it seems they never will return to the sound in their 3 first albums. But even though they are doing nice music.

There is a song named Khanjar which means bodkin, I wonder why they have chosen that title !

Dunno why they chose the name but it's a pretty good song, the best on this album I think. It's an instrumental btw.

now that I'm listening to the song on youtube it's got strong oriental tone.Perhaps that's the reason, and yeah regardless of the genre I liked it but I would love to know which of them chose that title.

Sounds like it yeah, and it's a bit different to the sort of folk they usually go for. Guess that's why it's a bonus. A pleasant surprise anyway.

There were some memorable moments for sure. it's obviously a development after RST and Scythe... still not 100% convinced. looking forward to their further work to make my mind up.

Undeniably catchy, and with a strong folk sound running throughout the majority of the tracks. I still find the overblown melody and so-so vocal delivery slightly off-putting, but the instrumental performance is enough to make up for that. My personal highlights would be "I am the Monster" and "Forget-Me-Not".
