First Kanonenfieber and now this. The same guy behind two strong black metal AOTY contenders.

Waiting for Sisyphus to finish his set so I can use his equipment.

Seriously, I actually thought of you while adding the profile.
Will Nik ever notice that Leiþa even exists and that it is a project from the Kanonenfieber guy?

I shouldn't have doubted you.

The outro of "Prometheus" is godlike.

I would have liked this a lot more with a fuller sounding bass for the snare and kick drum. They're so audibly thin in the mix (despite being elevated to match the higher pitched guitar melodies) to the point of distraction for me, almost like they weren't set up on the mic properly. The toms and cymbals get picked up fine which is why I think this is a mistake rather than an intentional choice. At least they don't suffer from tin can syndrome, but they just lack emphasis where they should be serving to support the excellent guitar work. It's a really well-crafted album with thoughtful songwriting but I can't get enveloped in the atmosphere because of the distracting production, to the point I think a nine drops to a seven.

Great, like this more than Kanonenfieber.
