It's not your fault if you listen to Griseus and mysterious images haunt you through the album. It's the attitude of this masterwork, you can just listen and totally get lost in it. Just lean back, play the music and let this be your marvelous journey to mystery and nature. You will be surprised how delightful it will be.

I am currently in a round of doing reviews on first time listens. Everything that comes to hand from random searches. Right now, I'm so glad that this is the first piece of my experiment. Due to this I won't give any rating, you better try it for yourself.

Imagine your non-kvlt epic black metal band doing top notch music. Give it some more touch. And even more.

Agreed. This album is insanely good and unique.

I cannot rate this anything other than a 10/10. One of the most impressive debut albums ever in my opinion, especially since it's all done by just ONE guy.

Yes, and I don't give many albums 10/10, you could listen to this album over again and still find new melodies and elements. The length of the album doesn't bother me either, although it is rather long. Probably Nihil, Latent Thistle and Arboreal Sleep are the highlights for me, but the whole album is just fantastic and magical.

About 10% of all my votes are 10/10's, so I don't hand out a lot of those either. Anyway, even after 5 listens I feel I haven't even fully grasped this album, so yeah, you can indeed keep listening to this without being bored at all. Although it's hard for me to decide which song is my favourite (they're all great), right now I think In Lands of Ashes is the song I enjoy the most, along with Nihil and Loss probably, but as I said I really need to listen more to know.

Rating: 10 One of the best black metal albums ever recorded. Well worth the listen and the buy. Thank you MS for helping me discover such talent.

  Great release, but far too long. could have cut out at least 20 minutes.

Rating: 10 Just listened to this for the first time. Easily a 10/10 and I usually don't give those out very easily. This album absolutely floored me, already one of my all-time favorite BM releases.
