Captain sighting!



@Dungeon and Flugmorph: I'll second both of those statements. I could definitely see this getting bumped to a 5

This is just so good. I can understand why it is not everyone cup of tea and how the vocals can turn some people off, but I just love this so much

This is sounding a load better on second listen, damn (first spin phased me out big time).



Has its peaks (perfect opener, Hele/Ulapoi as a huge central highlight), a firm nadir (Rintamaan thru Laineinen meh) and moments that fundamentally disagree with my metabolism (Sydames on tiel woa) and striking moments of darkness (Veden elein oh yeah bby). Not sure how much I love the closer, but agree with the (excellent) review that this is a pretty holistic package. Good shit.

This was very pleasant but it felt so long at times. Glad I checked this out though; it's not in my usual genres that I listen to often.

@Johnny: lmao, glad it's coming together for you even it it came with some stomach issues! I agree about Hele/Ulapoi being a huge central highlight. appreciate the positive feedback as well :]



Flugmorph 4.5.. niice



@mkmusic: yeah that's fair! the length works well for me given the themes and the fact that it took over 10 years to record but it definitely takes some dedication to digest it all with no distractions

Its at least as good as Maaaet imo, which I also immensely enjoyed previously.

'Saattue' and 'Veden elein' are definitely the highlights here.



In need of further re-listens, but I must say I enjoyed their last record much more

Kauan is my absolute fave

Maaaet is untouchable, Vare and Airut: Aamujen are near perfect, Kauan an exceptional debut, this for me is maybe between Kauan and Airut:Aamujen, but hoping it continues to grow as it has
