| Album of the year for me, I don't know what it is about it specifically but I can't stop listening to it. |
|
|
|
| Pretty good stuff... recommended. |

"but not overpowering enough for Ne Obliviscaris to be referred to as "that band with a violin". "
That's A Forest Of Stars' title instead.
It's sad that the best music from my country isn't available in the shops. The lates tIdo or X-factor losers, however...
If your more sophisticated/complex than Cold Chisel, and aren't a singer-songwriter (Paul Kelly, Missy Higgins, etc.), most of the big music stores don't care.
Anyway, a real good album. Forget Me is a great building piece. |

| This is one of the best albums iv come across for a long time. I highly recommend any metal fan give it a try. A very classy album |
|
|
|
| I should like it, but it refuses to stick in my head. |
|

|
| Very good review. And an even better album! |

I still have no words to describe this and I find it difficult to get into, some albums just leave you really stumped. It seems exactly like the kind of thing I would enjoy to the fullest (with the folk/progressive aspects) but.. something just puts me off, I have no idea what it is.
Maybe the problem is that it's being too "busy", as you say, for me. |

Great review, I really liked this album a lot. It's definitely showing up in my personal Top 20 list this year.  |
|
|
|
Good review, but I would've liked to see a rating.
Anyway, this album blew me away when I first got to hear it. I put it in the list "My Top 20 Albums Of All Time" a few days ago, though I don't know if it'll stay there for long. |

| Nice review I just don't like this as much as others. |
|

Really good review.
Quote:
What's the complete picture like? The "visible" part of the package should give you a crude idea. Song names that start with prepositions. Lyrics that breathe romanticism, echoing with despair. Winged creatures and fire. Everything hints at the blues of youth, spilled soul-blood, vibrant sonic colors; everything tells you each song will be like pushing against an invisible wall separating you from what you desire most.
Especially this part. I know this album has its flaws, but this feeling I get from listening to it compensates for it. It is just interesting enough for me to absolutely adore it.
I like this far better than anything Wintersun ever released. |

Yeah, that's how I feel about it... it loses focus and I'm not very attentive by nature but I like it a lot. |

"Song names that start with prepositions."
 Yeah...
Well, Milena, you have made me really curious and excited to hear this! I'm going into the experience aware that it'll be flawed at times but nonetheless beautiful and full of surprises. Just like I like it  Thanks for writing about this one! |

|
|
| Wow, this album is really really good. Get it now! |

JB Hi-Fi doesn't even stock Death albums in their metal section. |

Excuse me while I wipe the drool away. GOD DAMN this album is stunning!!!!
Why do I do this to myself every single year? I read about an album I just know I'll love then take my sweet ass time getting around to listening to it. All this time I could have been worshiping Portal Of I but I waited until last night to finally spin it. Then I listened to nothing else all evening, instead playing this continuously. Captivating. |

| Australia owns some of best new bands nowadays. These guys are pretty unique and amazing, I don't like the clean vocal much, but the rest is badass! |

Sixth best metal album of the year for me - but Chiggedy Chuck doesn't get it. I think this album has been criminally overlooked and will truly be an important step in the development of both black metal and progressive metal. Brilliant, brilliant stuff.
I talked about the album on this show here but I don't think I raved about it enough.
