I'll disregard that annoying "in this thread" comment. Well, decade=a period of 10 years. So the only two permissible albums for "the decade" are Sideshow Symphonies and Arcturian. In essence, you're simply saying you like it better than Sideshow Symphonies, a sentiment that most people tend to agree with. This decade is five years old now and Arcturian is the only release in that period of time so no matter how crap this would be it would still be their best in this decade ---- Member of the true crusade against European Flower Metal Yesterday is dead and gone, tomorrow is out of sight Dawn Crosby (r.i.p.) 05.04.1963 - 15.12.1996 Loading...

Production isn't what I expected but it works anyway. I'm glad they returned after all, hope I can see them live! Loading...

I want more ^^ Yea, at first I was underwhelmed, but once I got used to the hectic production it grew on me like crazy. And I love ICS Vortex's delivery, I think this is the best album he's been on yet. Especially at certain points where he transitions from singing to a short burst of harsh vocals. Loading...

Lethrokai Posts: 507 From: UK	14.07.2015 - 18:18 Rating: 8 Lethrokai Posts: 507 From: UK I've always felt somewhat estranged by Arcturus releases, but that being said this is pretty solid. The Arcturian Sign is a brilliant opening track, and the rest of the album is pretty good too. (Though there aren't many other remarkably high moments on the album either) ---- Sometimes you just need to roll the dice and look away. Loading...
