and creeping guitar swells. Paysage fans rejoice. |

first time through I sorta lost track of songs since the album has two gears: slow harmonized acoustic guitars, and super-buzzy drone riffs with the aforementioned placeholder drumming. that's certainly not a dealbreaker, since those droney riffs create a great atmosphere, and feature some interesting chords and combinations. the vocals were spot-on, with the whispers in the title track standing out not only as great for the song, but a signature sound for Hermodr. the presence of bass is very welcome, and the two-part riffs clearly work with the bass in what sounds like fairly intricate composition even at a crawling pace. overall it's a very coherent album, and a well-realized one. I don't often indulge in the doomier side of black metal, but I feel like this album will be a grower for me. |

Whole album is tight. The drumming is on point, and the vox are headliner quality. I'm not even into pop punk and I'm digging this. I especially liked when the vox hesitate for a beat and let the riff breathe before they come in, like in Belle Blvd. |

There are some cool things happening but never for a full song. I've just heard all this
done before better by the same band -- riffs are like "oh yeah, that sounds like Circle of
Cysquatch, except less interesting" or "I've heard this solo in Ember City, but it fit
better". Seems like a newcomer might enjoy this plenty, though. Which, in 2021, is probably
the point. |
