Oh yeah, love the new song. Long time fan of this band since they released the Apparition EP in 2009, been a great journey following their evolution. A truly progressive band.
 
I love the thematic consistency in the videos. Metal videos have a tendency to be utterly useless, but theirs have actually had a point.

This album is stunningly beautiful. If you're into stuff more on the arty ambient side of metal then you owe it to yourself to check this one out.

I've gotten chills from it several times already.

Not sure if I would say it is transcendent as I don't believe that it surpasses/exceeds the amazing "Language". They have continued to progress to a more progressive sound, having eliminated all the harsh vocals. I happened to enjoy the mix of clean and harsh on Language as they were used in such an incredible way. Nonetheless, Clairvoyant is a very solid release from this underrated band. Let's hope that there is a chance they end up on the lineup in 2019. Another solid release by them.
