Totally nails it, and I see this album being just as well received (if not more so) as Pneuma. It's hard to think of any other band that blends prog and black metal together for such a fun, unpredictable ride. I love Enslaved, but this is just on another level entirely.

Man this is some incredible music! Beside the awesome clean vocals, this reminds me of Oranssi Pazuzu! Looking forward to this

Damn, that sure was impressive!

This suddenly became one of my most anticipated albums of next year.

Considerably disappointed. This is garbage compared to their debut So bland and monotonous...

Fantastic!

I love the vocals here, what a charismatic clean voice. That bass is hella nice as well... Even if it counts as monotonous at some points (because the whole track is definitely not monotonous) I think it works wonders here to achieve a nice and hypnotic vibe.

Rather than rudely swooping down on that comment like some other people on here probably would, I'm curious to see how our listening differs by you explaining this, because I don't hear much monotony in anything other than the bass, really.

For them who don't know ''magoi'' means magicians

Very good! Waiting for the full album

Nice song. Love the ending. Fluffy production. Such melody. Much musicianship. Wow.

For all I know it could be the production, but when I listen to that track - despite any instrumental and vocal changes - I feel that nothing changes. The atmosphere is static and weak. Didn't appeal like the variation on their debut. I wish I could explain it better

Hmmm... well, I have a pretty good feeling that (like Pneuma) this new album's gonna have a lot of variation among the tracks, so I doubt this one will be what the whole thing sounds like.

Yep, you can certainly rely on HSN for variation

It's a pleasure to hear this.It sounds one step forward 'Pneuma'.I'm very pleased...
The songwriting is in high levels.Well done boys.
I don't agree with the monotony said earlier.Let's wait for the whole album.It might change opinions...

I'm also happy that they still use very goodmatching Greek lyrics between their English ones,as they did in their debut in such a way they don't ruin the songs...:thumbup:

It's really good by its own but lacks the fun factor of their debut which could make me laugh every time I listen to it. I hope that the rest of the album be different.

I honestly prefer this less-funny approach. Gets a more bizarre vibe.

Another disagreement in one day

I'm sorry, babe. It's just not the same anymore. I think I want a divorce.

I read a review of the whole thing the other day that mentioned a few tracks as having catchy choruses, so you never know. We could be in for some more "KILL YOUR MOTHER WHILE YOU'RE STILL IN HER WOMB!" type of stuff

hah I'd like catchy songs by these guys but they would definitely have hard time topping their debut.

Pretty cool song.

I enjoyed the song. Clean vocals were superb.

Did anybody listen to the whole album?
