A truly stellar death/doom album with heavy doses of black metal. Tracks like Isolation, Child of Light, and Broken Hymns deliver the sorrowful and icy tone of this album, elevated by the stirring cello compositions of Raphael Weinroth-Browne. The album delivers a deeply satisfying crescendo in Becoming Intangible before stirring the soul once again with Epilogue. Matt Richardson
Needing a fresh listen. Goes to wishlist. Chooses Folklore of Man by Vale and gets on with his work. After around fifteen minutes, he realizes that there is music on in the background, it is good, it is very good. He wants to tell people why he likes this so much ... he doesn't know. The hypnotic elements juxtaposed with the harder, but not too hard melodic elements. That might be it ! And he likes all the tracks the same ! This is very good indeed ! Andy
