4.0 excellentcharlie6026961 | August 25th 14

The vocals/lyrics were too melodramatic for me at first, but I learned to live with it. Musicianship and songwriting on this album are stellar. If Opeth is going to keep chasing the Prog Rock dragon, then I'm making room in my ashen, cold heart for November's Doom.

4.5 superbleycec | July 8th 14

A demonstrable improvement over prior works. The overly repetitive and derivative stylistic mimicry of the "Pale Haunt Departure" era have been abandoned for resonant clean vocals (which actually work!), lush acoustic interludes (Scorpius: a personal favorite), and intentionally compact song-writing. In a word, "Novembers Doom" has gone goth. And while that's typically a miserable thing, the band has studiously avoided most of the standard trappings and pitfalls of that lamentable genre [read: spoken word doggerel and the token pop female track]. Is this perhaps what "Novembers Doom" always intended to sound like but quite never had the artistic pluck to try? Given the aesthetic shift, it's half-surprising the band didn't adopt for a name change as well. Regardless, colour me modestly impressed and eagerly awaiting more.

4.5 superb"Be Like Water" or broke like an oak | December 17th 14

An other very talented band/album that is underestimate on Sputnik. It's a shame.
This metal band has something special in their sonority.
Difficult to get elsewhere, maybe Katatonia has done it too.
Can i be more vague.
So..................Excellent Album very balance.

3.2 goodTrey STAFF | July 29th 14

Kind of reminds me of a more death metal influenced version of Daylight Dies. Meaning it's good, but kind of no-frills doom/death.
