My favourite Enslaved album by some distance. Every elements conceived blend harmoniously with each other, giving it a bit more uniqueness than other Enslaved albums, though the latest one comes close as well...

Not my favorite Enslaved album as a whole, but the first song is so incredibly beautiful.

Unabashed brilliance, the only thing this band produces. I've seriously become the biggest fanboy ever of this band; it's not even funny.

Very underrated album. You will be surprised how it survived to this day without notice. Listen asap.

Right from the start you can tell this is an entirely different Enslaved to the one who produced albums like 'Vikingligr Veldi' and 'Frost'. It's interesting that, even though a couple of songs don't really seem to 'fit in' with the rest, the record has a nice flow to it, however diverse it may be. Opener 'As Fire swept clean the Earth' and 'The Crossing' are both good examples of how well Enslaved can use their own talents to combine different atmospheres together. Then you have the 'odder' songs in 'Havenless' and 'Queen of Night', which show the band's more progressive side a lot more. These latter two tracks don't really grab my attention or interest as easily as the other songs, but they still have an air of uniqueness to them. It's not quite the band's best album, but 'Below the Lights' certainly should be listened to with caution at least once.

Enslaved's riff quality really peaked on this album and hasn't let down since. Although, they didn't really nail that trademark Enslaved atmosphere until their following album.

So an 8.7 on MS is "very underrated"? 
I think it's actually overrated a bit. Not every song is equally great... the first few songs are amazing (The Dead Stare is by far my favourite song on the album), though the last few are a bit of a letdown for me.
