Yes i love this album. Its so hardcore and reminds me of some sick WP jams from the mid 90's. This album is a perfect 10, probably the best album ever next to Fatboy by Moe.

Haha, I couldn't even get through this. It's not bad at all -- in fact, it's pretty damn alright -- but in this amount of time I can listen to Rain Upon The Impure and Foulest Semen of a Sheltered Elite back to back and get like 5,000,000X more awesomeness out of them. This thing would be a lot better if the segments were just cut in half. It's not a mess, but it's bloated as fuck.

The youtube samples are extremely decent, but the sheer length of this scares me away. Along with Dodsengel and Botanist...

In that case, man is only air as well.

Winamp labeled this as "General Children's Music." Made me laugh.

While I was initially a bit skeptical about Blood Geometry due to its overwhelmingly long duration, that skepticism quickly ceased to be when I listened to the whole album in one go in the middle of the night with nothing but the darkness surrounding me. That setting enabled me to fully lose myself in the atmosphere as well as focus on all the details and shifts that have gone into creating this work of art.
The album contains enough variation as to never get tedious which I was really impressed by. The overall ambience and beautiful keyboard sections in addtion to the occasional outbursts of blastbeats was more than enough to keep my interest up amidst the all the bleakness and despair.
This is without a doubt one of the best albums of last year and as a matter of fact I have the Metal Storm Awards to thank for this discovery which would most likely have otherwise remained unnoticed to me.

The album was excellent ....
The album will end in my memory ....
If this album was rated in the top 10 would be higher than 10 points
These albums are masterpieces of space ....

Damn not only this seems to be made with a lot of passion, the guy seems to have a genius touch. Everything about this release is prodigal. Those titles for the two discs are just fucking amazing.

This might be the most massive album I've ever heard. What an album. Pretty much the definition of black/funeral doom metal. Lots of both of these genres to be heard, which obviously is a great combination.

Seriously. Coming back to it today and I gotta say, if this isn't hailed as a classic within the next 5-10 years, something is wrong with the universe.

Haha no kidding. Spun this whole album last week as well in one go. The only problem I have with it is that the ambient/atmopsheric parts go on for too long which at times makes me lost interest a bit. I would've been okay with a 20 minutes or so shorter album because even then it would be damn massive.
And since we're genre nitpicking (on Facebook), I think this is pretty damn melodic for a funeral black/doom album.

Well that's really where the BM element comes in imo, it's no new news that black metal borrows heavily from classical music, and this album is very neoclassical, even (as I said in my review) opera-like at points.

Production is where this album is damn brilliant. An incredible listen and my favourite tracks are Blood Of Ancients, Blood of Hatred which is absolutely amazing and sums up everything this album is about and has to offer in 36 mins and Pyramid Of The Cold Sun.

Indeed. It took him years to get it just right and he supposedly isn't even 100% satisfied with the result.

Another double-album that should have been a single album (is there ever any other type of double-album?). About half the content is a perfect fucking 10, the other half not so much...

Same, although I think The Temple Is Falling and Pyramid Of The Cold Son are particularly excellent

Pyramid Of The Cold Son is awesome! So is The Temple Is Falling. What I noticed with this album was that Arcane Throne & Mourning Star was more funeral doom and Blood Conduit & Void Pursuit was more atomspheric black. I don't know if he did that on purpose or not.

That's a really good point. I haven't spun this album in a while (it is a pretty huge commitment, to be fair ), but I would probably agree with you there. Most likely intentional, indeed, otherwise I don't think he would have divided the discs that way and given them their own separate titles as well.

It is a huge commitment. I was very lucky to find time today to listen to (at least almost) the whole thing. Yeah it is probably intentional, but I think he may have wanted to divided the discs due to the lengths.

is that the second time you called them that unintentionally, or are you making light of the previous time?
