Glad you came to this conclusion Dev, that removes a few degrees on your gayness scale.
Now if it's any help I'd say that any Lunar Aurora album except for "Seelenfeuer" (completely ruined by the production, plus not so great songs anyway) is worth owning. Each one of them seems like recorded in a different spot in space and time.
"Weltengänger" shows the wide spectrum of the band's abilities, while still going the old-school BM path. Lots of cosmic synths and a windy production. It's their "moon" album so far, that is maybe until the release this year of "Mond" ("Moon" in German), which I just can't wait for!
"Of Stargates and Bloodstained Celestial Spheres" is typically forest-like, kind of trollish if you want with some of the most epic melodies they ever made.
"Ars Moriendi" is right out of the grave, their most necro stuff by far, yet purely breathtaking (of course...)
"Elixir of Sorrow" is maybe a tad more intimate as it seems to reflect on personal decay. It has some long-winded raging parts and their best song to date ("Hier und jetzt") - well, apart from the amazing song on the Paysage d'Hiver split.
Bottom line: great band, low profile, more than just worth checking out!
