Music creates great atmosphere and that howling, screaming vocals in some parts, I am not fan of it but music how its composed, I hear a bit prog influences and small prog in BM can be good, because it creates atmosphere and we have great one here, ok here those howling vocals ae OK, because it dont take over main vocals

This could have been a much better album but it used clean vocals a bit too much for my liking. They were fine in the longer tracks such as "Anatkh" and "Empath". But in "Poison Green Dream" and "Return To The Fields Of Violet" they disrupted the constant flow of the music. I will have to listen to this again at some point.

Edit: Listened to it again and the cleans didn't bother me this time. Still an 8 but overall a stronger 8.
