^ Yes, agreed.
I was very upset about the demise of Peccatum though. I love what Ihsahn and Ihriel come up with together, the romanticsm and Western Art Music influences in Peccatum are beautiful.
The last two releases (Lost in Reverie, and The Moribund People [EP]) are excellent releases.
Notably, Ihsahn's vocal work in Peccatum showed he is a very capable musician in vocal aspects, both clean and grim styles: His grim vocals with Peccatum have a more abrasive quality, while retaining his timbre. His clean vocals in recent times (The Adversary and also the live Emperor footage from Wacken 2006) shows he has been training hard: his singing skill has increased several levels, and he has strengthened his upper registers and falsettos considerably. Most impressive!
On a note about Heidi (Ihriel) I am dying to get my hands on some Star Of Ash. I've not yet heard it, but from what I hear of her in Peccatum, she sounds very very interesting.
