I don't have my hopes up very high as their last album wasn't that great, let's hope they'll go back to what they were doing on their earlier releases

Excellent album. The annoying screaming vocals and the dragging length can be a deterrent but overall it's more than worth it.

The throwback to Fall to Rise in Returning to the Source was an unexpected surprise.

Exactly!!! It was a real return to the source And I never understood the complaint about the screams. I don't know, maybe I got used to it, but it sounds amazing to me.

Enormous effort! As you are getting blown away by the entire album,there come the last three tracks where you jaw drops and your spirit migrates to another dimension!

Damn, hard to tell what I think. At first listen it was so awesome, at 2nd I had soem doubts, heard some stuff that doesn't really fit, now 3rd time i'm in love with it... damn you Carlos, you made such a grand stuff.

I am loving this! Awesome, by far one of the best albums I've heard in a while. Soaring melodies that grip my heart and soul, completely satisfying progression, technical but not mentally straining, and of course it's heavy!. There is not even one boring moment. These guys know how to play really good progressive metal.

God Damn! this album is blast-washing my brain, raising the bar for the standard of metal awesomeness. Sorry Meshuggah, my long time favorite Metal band, you may have been bumped to number two... will eagerly await Persefone's next release before re-arranging my favorite list.

Yeah, that seems like the primary issue with this album. A lot of my friends who are into tech death are turned off by what they perceive to be "unnecessary wankering" from the guitarist. Glad to hear you enjoyed it, nonetheless.

Wow! Just perfect! After listening this album almost every day since it has been released, I must say it's probably best album i've heard in this decade!

Personal preference I guess. The 'guitar spam' is my favorite aspect of the album.

Nothing special here. From the technical standpoint it's almost perfect but many bands are nowadays. On a melodic side - no really bright spots found. Many riffs are djent-type riffs and other trivial things so we've heard this stuff many times. Verdict: overhyped as hell. One of the albums that everyone is praising but some time later will listen once a year at best.
Best tracks: Mind as Universe and Consciouness.

I think it's interesting that you find Persefone to be generic and criticizing them for doing things that has been done many times over, given the fact that you found Omnium Gatherum's newest album to be perfect.
Also, outside of this website, the reviews seem to be lukewarm for this album. It is not, by any means, an album that everyone is praising.

I mean here on MS. Outside opinions are different indeed.
As for my opinion you interpreted my post not quite right (or I was not clear). Great music is always on the first place for me. If the record is stunning from the musical standpoint then I don't care about originality. But if it's not then at least some fresh air can do the trick. "Spiritual Migration" is very average as a piece of music and not very successful in innovations. And of course it's my humble opinion only. I just feel it would be useful to add some diversity into your highly enthusiastic choir. 
OG are among my favorites since their debut in 2003 and I like their old-school sound and that they do accent on great melodies and deep emotional background as MDM bands did in the end of 90s. When they say "adult-oriented MDM" I know precisely what they mean. So it's a very subjective and personal thing.

I was intrigued by their previous albums , but this album is so boring for me and the solos are so annoying , beside the lack of rich melodies and the generic songwriting , for me their only 2 tracks made me interested , anyway i can't understand all the buzz and the praise this album got .
