The Vision Bleak with Deathship Has A New Captain and Carpathia – A Dramatic Poem were a small surprise for the gothic metal scene, some fresh air for the genre with glimpses of personallity, inspiration and filled with horror and lyricism atmosphere. The Wolves Go Hunt Their Prey which followed was nothing innovative, not anymore, a good album, in the same vein as the previous two in terms of feeling, but it wasn't giving you the impression of the horrorful orgasms you had whilst listening to the first two releases. The same applies on 2010's Set Sail To Mystery, whose only mystery is just new compositions, the ingredients are set, the recipe is already written, all that remains is to re-fix the outcome.

Received the limited Book edition of the ablum today. Great album and a great revival after the kind of lack luster previous album.

Ok... same old Vision Bleak. It gets a bit boring after a while I think. Although it is a very good album, there's nothing new in it

Great album. As always, this duo provides us with high quality soundtrack to gothic horror stories.
