Very excited to see where these guys go after Varahtelija and the Waste Of Space collab. They've been getting a lot jammier and bouncier lately and hopefully this continues in that vein.

For some reason, the artwork reminds me of Odraza's re-release on vinyl... Pre-ordered the album just because the single blew my mind away Meow

Can't wait to hear it. Got it preordered on Band Camp, so now it's just the waiting game.

Loved the album as a whole. Incredible use of the keys. It does sets it apart from the rest of their discography.
Unfortunately I really did not see the point of the last track. I felt it didn't add that much to the table as it went against what they were doing on the rest of the album. I can see how that makes it a great finish to balance things off but I just thought it was too cacophonic and repetitive for its' own good.

I love the synths here. There's some bounciness still left, but a lot of it is more atmospheric, which I'm not sure what to think about. Wish it was catchier overall, but it's a good record.

Totally agree, keys were a major highlight here, particularly on tracks 1 and 5, but not particularly fond of the closing song.

The rhythm on the 5th track, Jesus fuck...

Pretty much exactly what I was looking for, goes off the Varahtelija/Waste Of Space Orchestra sound but still distinct enough to be its own thing. I definitely didn't like the last track as much as the others but I dig it, usually their albums end on a really spacey/abstract note so that's an interesting change having the last track basically be the heaviest.

This is way too original and great to stay in the top 10 for long.

Holy fuck this album is great. But yeah... I think the last song is easily the weakest, although it's not bad. It's just an odd choice with which to end the album.

Yeah this had the #1 slot in our 10 for a brief moment yesterday. Nice to dream but I don't think it's gonna even stay in the top 10 for a week as it's not some form of melodic extreme metal or gothic metal.

Great album, but still going to clutch "Valonielu" and my fav "Värähtelijä" close to my heart. Those two appealed me more on psychedelic infusion and atmospheric basis than it did here.

Yeah, all 3 are fucking catchy.

Good album, spacy vibes, tracks 3 and 5 are my favourites. The only negative that I can really think of is that the vocalist at times sounds like he is coughing up a hairball.

Implying you wouldn't be into a cat-fronted metal band.
