Like the title. It's so.... Mortenish Can't wait to hear the album and see what he's up to now (and Ailyn is still in the band, can't believe it!)

Enjoyed the last one, look forward to this. Ailyn singing two albums? She should consider herself quite honoured! She's got a great voice I'm glad she still there.

Oh they changed singer again after 'Nine Destinies...'? I stopped following them after that album, so no wonder I'm a little "away" from the band.

Yay, the same singer for whole two albums!

Seriously though, I prefer their first two albums, I'm not sure how thrilled I'll be with this release.

The title is very Mortenish indeed. Ailyn in 2 albums? Now that's unexpected!

Last two albums sucked, Mortemia sucked, and we all know that. So now Morten will listen to those 3 albums, rip off some tunes and vuala - "new" album. I completely stopped believing in Morten, when he promised that Mortemia will be something like Beyond the Veil, and it was nothing like that at all.

I'm so excited about their forthcoming record! Ailyn is awesome and I love "The 13th Floor," so my expectations are high.

Holy crap.. no numbers in the title? i really thought the next one was going to be named something like "The Eleven Keys of Sixtysix Doors"

Yeah something closer to the earlier albums would be killer. What they should do is have one incredible pop song with a video, the singer looking lovely and attracting the audience and then sell the albums and tickets. The fans will like the album that's closer to At Sixes And Sevens even if they came for the pop. Everybody's happy.

I'm afraid it is not the case, that Morten wants to create a more popish music, but it's because he lost his writing talent, he run out of it.

Agreed.

Kind of a surprise about the stability of the lineup this time around to me too, and that the disc is nearly going to be released. I'm not too hopeful, so probably no chance for a disappointment . I'll check it out of course, with the desire for any sort of evolution in his writing compared to the last 2 Sirenia / last Mortemia albums. I'm starting to wonder if it's his isolation in composing that is becoming his downfall?

I like Sirenia's earlier albums and the 13th floor as well so gotta say I'm really looking forward to this.
