Cronian - Terra

[FUBAR]

I've just orderd the cd. What are your thoughts on this album. Ive heard number of mixed reviews.

i have it but i dont listen to it very much...that doesnt help, sorry

Its had some mixed reviews alright.

Im a big lover of Vintersorg as a solo/project artist, as well as his work with Borknagar.

I also love Oystein's style, and their combination works well on Terra. I think ultimately Terra is one "for the fans"... unofrtunately, its not different enough to stand on its own merit without taking Borknagar into consideration.

Its a good album, dont get me wrong, it has a very icy feel to it which is great. I think their NEXT release will be a good one. Terra is about Andreas & Oystein cutting their teeth together imo.

On a side note, Andreas' drum programming on this album, as with Waterclime, is fucking FANTASTIC. He's getting VERY VERY good at it.

good album I'd say. On a scale from 1-10, I'd probably give it a 6.

 

[Braighs]

hey! I just ordered this too.
I'll tell you in about 5 days hopefully.

Personally, I don't think it will be that great. I just buy stuff that he makes because I respect what he does. well...that didn't make any since

Just like Waterclime, it is an experiment. Future efforts should show vast improvement.

Well, Øystein wrote most of the music on this one, not Vintersorg! He stated that in an interview.
