Yeah this album is great!!
They chose to do the clean vocals in less voices than on their previous album.
That because it would be possible to do the vocals all Live.
Too bad, because I really like the vocal arrangement of Buried in Oblivion. |

| Amazing album from an amazing band. Great review |

|
| Funny, I just submitted review for this album, as to wether it will be allowed or not.....well I don't know. But as for this review, yeah it's pretty good, and I pretty much am on par with it. |

| Both Power and Death frequently appear, so I'd say they are Power Death Metal, which just sounds plain weird, but I also love this album, it is my favourite and I like both types of vocals evenly. |

|
| This album definitely exceeded my expectations. The new vocalist is significantly better and they packed plenty of aggression in this album. The only thing I can complain about is the whored-out triggers, but other than that this album is pretty much flawless. |

Totally agree. This album is one of the best I've heard all year.
The kick drum sound is a bit off, and some of the vocals rub me the wrong way, but all in all these are very trivial details that don't prevent me from loving this record. |

| Go buy this record. Oh my god this is an amazing piece of metal every song is a killer especially ''timeless winter'' and nothing'' this is great this is a band to watch in the future and now. |

| wow- i think i am alone when i say i MUCH prefered their last release. i didn't find the vocals on this album what i was expecting. there's still a few good tracks, but i wasn't blown away. |

| I have to agree with you, broken goddess. I don't know what it is, but The Scattering of Ashes just lacks something Burried in Oblivian has a lot of. This one's still quite good, though, maybe it's a bit too power/speed for me compared to the other albums. I find you can't hear the complexity of the song when it's too fast, so it's kind of like turning up the speed's a way to hide a lack of songwriting talent. Maybe, maybe not. |

| Wow - I doubt I am alone when i say Rupert is MUCH teh gay. Speeding up music was obviously a way for this band to further challenge themselves technically. It doesn't necessarily mean they've sacrificed thoughtful composition for an increased tempo just because you don't give the record enough listens to let it express it's subtleties. |

|
| At least I listen to all the music I have LAWL. And by the way, I've listened to this album twice so far, both times thinking the same thing. You're right that it may grow on me later on, but it doesn't seem likely at this point. |
|
|
|
| Good album, but I also liked "Buried In Oblivion" best. "Severe Emotional Distress" and "Nothing" are perfect though, and there are many other good songs too. 8.5/10 |
|
|
|
| I like how some people are ripping on the vocals... uhm they all sound pretty fucking similar. I mean im not saying that different but if you told me it was the same guy on every album id believe it. on that Timeless winter song someone liked so much... the vocals sound like Tim Owens or w/e its pretty gay its probably my least favorite song on the cd b/c it just reminds me when I liked Iced Earth and When they were fucking sick... |

Yes!, this is a helluva album, they came, and i missed them i was off-town dammit, Ill see them in a couple months, i'm sure they'll rule.  |
|
|
|
| Wow, this album really impressed me. I usually don't really like the Heavy-metalish vocals, but the singer pulls them off really well. They are a great band, and this album is pretty progressive, and I really like that. |
|
|
|
| This is the first album I've heard from these guys... can't say that I like it too much. The vocals kinda reminds me of a lot of mainstream metal bands I hear here in the states. These guys sure are talented, but just as I begin to dig the progressive elements of a song... it ends. The songs are WAY TOO SHORT. |

I think that progressive elements are more in background and they are not so frequent by this band. Their staff is generally based more on melodic death metal than progressive. So the lenghts of these songs are just normal...
By the way this album is very cool for me. |

Really? I think that the arrangements of most of these songs are pretty darn proggy. I guess I'm just used to the arguably "pretentious" long prog songs... |

Good review. It certainly is original and fresh, those are some of the reasons that keep this band interesting. Besides, they make great songs and great records. This one is a hard listen, even if you know the band as well as I do, even if you listened to everything else.
After a few listens you start to understand what this is and then you can fully enjoy Into Eternity's genius songs. Personally, I quite like the vocal styles they use as well as their approach to riffs.
Oh and "timeless winter" is my favourite song. |

| Awesome album & review!!! |

| One of the best metal albums ever. It has it all: originality, brutality, catchiness, beauty and that "fuck you all bitches, we're just having fun" attitude that's so metal. 10/10 |
|
|
|
| Stu's perfect blend of screams and growls to high Halford-esque vocals give me chills. Freakin' awesome album. I'm content the review does justice. |
