Industrial is really not my thing. This album reminds me a lot of Mysticum, because I saw them live years ago (I didn't know them) and the lack of real drums was a real problem for me. The programming lacks maturity, at certain moments the tracks lacked fluidity. But utimately, the programming adds a strange side that is not necessarily unpleasant to the album, and created a distorted atmosphere that I can appreciate.
For the vocals, obviously they're not perfect, we don't have the fat growls that I like, but I have no doubt that with years and practice this problem will be resolved.
The album repeats itself, some tracks didn't need to be so long like "The Watchers" and "The Ouroboros". In the good points I must admit that I rather agree with musclassia's review, "Forsaken Species" is my favorite track and the beginning of "Inspiral" helps a lot with the "eerie" side of the album.

For a start I've heard worse, and just at the start of the year bands that are not at their first try like Old Nick or Estuarine have not done better. Even if the album is far from perfect, it's a beginning, and everyone starts somewhere. I may be witnessing the beginning of a project which, with mastery and experience, will mature and improve in quality.
