Based on the quality of this album compared to others in Enslaved's discography, I think this will come down to around 8.2/10 once ~300 people have voted (which I agree with).

Good guess

I loved the second, third and fourth songs but overall the album kept me wanting. From a stellar band like Enslaved your expectations remain high and somehow this was slightly underwhelming.

Never would’ve imagined that the day would come when giving a new Enslaved album a 6/10 would feel like generosity. Holy fuck, did they phone it in with the songwriting on this one. It is a monumentally uninspired album, especially by their own rather high standards. Well-produced and well-performed boredom is all this is to me.
