Forgot this was coming out. Will be in my hands tomorrow, but until then, I really didnt want to wait. Absolutely the best melodic death/doom band, imo.

Album never really did much for me previously, but today it's really kicking my ass. Not as different from Into the Mirror Black as I remember it being. And Warrel Dane was definitely one of the most intense trad/power singers in his prime.

These guys were definatly at the top of the mountain when it comes to Prog/orchestral/rock.
The musicianship on this album is amazing. The keyboardist is crazy good but the guitarist unique style is what peaks my interest most.
ELP, Genesis, Yes and a hint of metal.

I might not have given it a thorough enough listen, but I bought it and was underwhelmed. Seemed like the weakest release to date from OT.

Yeah I agree. Didn't like their other stuff when I found them from the new album but the new album is still in my favorites.

Antediluvian has a solid discography. Everything they've done has been golden IMO. Not sure how I feel about this against the other material, needs a few more spins. One thing is for certain, it doesn't disappoint in the least.

BTW I meant the stuff that came out this year not their other full length, their was a EP and demo's I heard that were awful.

They'll probably never top rain. From what I remember of Grey Dawn, I didnt like it at all, so that puts this one at either #2 or #3 with me.
Going old school tonight.
I get your post but...I just can't help but think how far we've fallen when Filosofem defines the old school.

That's odd. I know some people thought the return release wasn't deep enough, but I liked it. Never heard anyone trash either of the original two albums.

Agreed. imo metalcore should be accepted back into the fold and Burzum et al redefined as simply black, or black with metal influences.

Well considering Burzum was at the forefront of Norwegian black metal I think it qualifies as "old school". Besides, it was made in 1993, even if it didn't come out until 1996.
Old school is a relative term, not absolute. A thrash album from 1993 wouldn't be old school, but a black metal album would just because the genre was newer. Sorta like how a punk rock album from 1984 wouldn't be old school, but a thrash metal album would.

Yeah I agree with Zach. Burzum is part of the second wave(?) of black metal bands, and are one of the first of the kind (and Vargs style and interests were old school) so I would say its old school second wave black metal.
Bathory would be old school first wave black metal.
