Must say I'm still not completely sold on this band or album. They're the definition of consistency, and I certainly appreciate how this album is both solid and dynamic. But compared to some of the other extreme doom albums this year (Faal, Profetus and Monolithe especially) there's that certain something missing. A feeling, an atmosphere, not sure what it is.

I think it's missing the creativness that those other have. This feel kinda like cookie cutter funeral doom.

It's still fantastic though, even in its lack of originality.

This amazing sound and dark atmosphere is amazing, amazing band. I hope else's and albums are stored in this style. Great atmosphere, great audio, with the only ESOTERIC can compete this album

That was some painful Google-translated reading I must say.

Painful, yet hilarious.

Brutally wonderful and mournfully inspiring album, it I may say so. Evoken, as always, play a very well-balanced kind of funeral doom/death metal and do it quite skillfully too. One a few bands in this sub-genre manage to get my attention and Evoken is surely one of them.

This is their worst effort to date. it gets dull and boring at times. I never get scary about any album i listen to, even i must say there is no music that can change my mood. I can listen to funeral doom and being in a good mood and music dont make me feel miserable or sad. There must be something wrong with me :/

Let's remember how good this is as preparation for the new album.

I'm one of the few that sees this as there best. The emotions through the reverbing psych melodies and the unpredicted tempo shifts to the crying guitars carry this output as dimensions of layers above the themes of the previous tones refining them into one.

Another extremely rare quality to me was its effective use of dynamics which are usually remembered by crap mainstream reunion albums, yet of course, it's a funeral doom album that changes my mind, intentionally swaying you across bend after bend to literally hit you.

The art and purple with black marble haze vinyl release alone trumps Evoken's catalog. Into Aphotic Devastation's hypnotic breakdown melody into the psych cadence puts me to tears.

This is, along with Quietus, the best Evoken album. Funeral (death) doom metal doesn't get better than this.

Absolutely phenomenal album. The atmosphere they create here is just unreal.

Also, A Tenebrous Vision has got to be one of the best instrumental tracks I ever heard.
