This album is a disappointment for me. I love KoK and its true the band has up-ed the riff writing and catchy-ness to a new level but the 1st 4 tracks on this album lack energy. On 2/3rds of this record, Thebon's vocals lack any form of 'black metal' conviction while hes attempt at chorus singing annoys me to no end! The epic war 'atmosphere' we have known this band for is not there anymore. Of the few tracks that have any resemblance to the KoK of old, 'Leaving The Mortal Flesh' is one of them which is also my fav track off this album.

I think youre confusing it with "Kolossus", on that album his vocals sucked wayyyyy more....Im pretty impressed at least it seems he isnt tone-deaf on this release.

A huge improvement over Kolossus, especially the vocals. They manage to be more experimental while maintaining the energy and atmosphere of Armada. Excellent album.

Excellent album. I hate only the "The Dragontower" song. The other songs are perfect

It's good. Not a 10 or 9 for me as it seems to be for most thou...
Fans of Enslaved latest works (Ruun, Vertebrae) will simply worship this.

There are some good tunes here, "The Awakening" has a Dimmu Borgir's "Enthrone Darkness Triumphant" feeling that i like very much.
"Dragon Iconography" is also great. But then there are others which are simply...meh

So that would put Enslaved where exactly? Last I recall they were around before Keep Of Kalessin.

Or for that matter the last two Emperor albums.

Yeah...Well, point being, prog-black ain't anything that new.

I agree for Emperor and Enslaved. I was just amazed with what i heard on Reptilian. Maybe Reptilian will bring more light on this kind of music. It is more tastier, but also not so prog as Enslaved and Emperor.

I was actually pleasantly surprised by this album. I really dig Keep, but after hearing the Dragontower preview I was not really sure what to think. But the rest of the songs, especially the last half of the album, are all pretty kickass. Dragontower I'm still...haha--well it doesn't matter. The rest of the cd is good imo.

Why call Reptilian prog black? It's pop-black

I like Kolossus more, personally, but Reptilian's still an amazing album. Dragon Iconography, The Awakening, and Dark as Moonless Night are my favs... and as far as the prog black thing: yeah, it's nothing new, but it deserves much more praise and recognition than it's common to get, imo... so hail to KOK for getting it out there more.
