Not sure which is better yet but its nice that this is competing with Exuvia in ambition.

When the preview track was released a while back, I knew this would be monumental. And I listened to this 4 times since yesterday and it's clearly the AOTY, no possible debate (though TRoB might want a word...).

Can't describe how beautiful III is. And how many awesome riffs and terrifying passages there are. Fack my life, just too good.

Song #3 is too great to be described with words.

Yeah, like I said in the shoutbox, "Non-Existence's Warmth" is easily in my top 10 best tracks ever. Such a journey..

Who added the image for this album? Come on, that's just the right half of the full spread out of it. Fixing now because that's triggering my OCD like mad

U weird. I went with the one with the eye because that's the cover I see being used... pretty much everywhere else

Yeah I've seen it, but Paz added the right half of that as the cover here... which, were you to fold the album spread over, would actually end up being the back cover... I think?

Bought this on a whim and yes, the album is amazing. Anyone who's a fan of The Ruins of Beverast should feel right at home listening to this. Incredibly ambitious, complex and darkly beautiful. Thanks for the recommendation.

I don't own the album (yet) but I think that both sides of the cover (left and right) can be used separately as the main cover. It depends on how you put the panels in digipack.. I may be wrong though.

I might be off the target on this one but cover art here resemble to Broken Hope's Omen Of Disease. At least, on texture point of view.

Then I'm definitely gonna listen to this. Exuvia is my favorite album of the year so far.

The unary counting is really annoying me - Im just glad it's only 4 songs. However the music is alright.

One word: overrated.
It is definitely a very good album, but too much of time is spent on just fucking around, and that comes from a dronehead.
one of all time 10 most favorite songs? barely in my top 50 songs of this year.

I only now realised that the guy in front of the snake demon thing on the cover is playing saxophone. That's so funny to me.

Another 2017 album that deserves a much higher rating than that generic as fuck Kreator album.

All songs on this album are overlong. And most of the time song structures do not justify song length.
The album has quite a few good ideas, but they are not very well put together. I honestly don't understand all those enthusiastic rants about how great this album is.

I agree. I like the 3rd song, though, particularly the sax. Pity it's not available by itself. The album reminds me a lot of Indesinence.

He should have made it in 2 years instead of 7 then it probably would have been short and sweet
