This is a neat album, hey I don't listen to this kind of thing ever really but I like whats going on in this album. its actually a good one to put on just before bed, which is not something I would say about much black metal.

Superb

Wintersun's 'Time' is out. New Summoning too - Necrophaghist, now it's your time.

True, good point.

This album is so good, it usually wakes me up in the morning.

Infinite boring.

This album gets better after every listen! remarkable!

Hey man, good to see you're still here. Was just enjoying your Youtube videos this afternoon, on which you did an amazing job. For me the album doesn't get better, it just remains an album that is too good to be true even after 15-20 spins. I bet you listened to it more than that, am I right?

well, a lot more than that...I'm actually playing it endlessly while working, it is that good imo I am actually working on new video, but since this one is entirely CG (3d animation and staff) it is going slowly, but it looks damn nice...hopefully I can finish it til the end of this year, since I don't have that much free time lately...well, patience is the virtue

Hehe, I expected as much. Not sure if entirely CG would be better, but I'm still looking forward to seeing it. Care to share which song you're going to make a video of? If not, then just let me know (here or via PM).

Not sure why this is voted as the best album of the year so far...

Well, I don't wanna start with a scientific study why I don't like the album since I don't know the band very well and it is not exactly "my type" of metal band.

Maybe it is an acquired taste, but it just felt plain boring.

^ I agree. The music never seems to really progress, unless it's just something I'm not hearing. I'm not put off by albums that have long tracks (Opeth is one of my favorite bands) but to me the songs feel like one long, tiresome, drumming noise. "Gong...Gong...Gong...Gong." Reminds me of the old man in Monty Python's Holy Grail, "Bring out your dead (Gong), bring out your dead (Gong)." Except it's that for more than an hour. It's not terrible music, but to me it's terribly boring music. Somebody mentioned above that they like to listen to it before bed, and that's about the only thing I would listen to this album again for.

It's unbelievably sad that there are really people out there who create accounts just to rate down music ..

It's gonna happen sadly, with others bands too.

Thing is summoning have an established sound and wont change, their music is meant to be played late at night with the headphones on, its hardly party music.

I can understand people thinking its boring, but remember great music isnt always played at a mid-fast pace, as with doom/funeral metal.

People who find this album boring simply didn't listen it enough. It's a masterpiece and most masterpieces require at least a few listens to unfold their ingenuity.

8.5 ratings are now displayed in green? I remember only 8.6 and above were.

Yeah, a lot of people have lowered their initial rating for some reason.

Superb!!!

Pretty standard orchestral piece with black metal slapped on top - simple, yet good mix.

Well, IMO people who find this album boring don't like atmospheric black metal at all, so don't judge or give a rating to an album representing a genre you don't like. At least TRY to avoid doing that.

Hahahahahahahaha. No.

There are many different kinds of atmospheric black metal. Just because I don't love one it doesn't mean I don't love the entire style. Btw: i think this is just good but nothing more (I prefer older releases tbh).

Well, maybe i rushed when i said that, but seriously i'm sure that many of those who voted don't prefer atm. black. This album is awesome and the problem is that people can't stop comparing between the old and the new stuff. Like old and new Sepultura.
