I've really enjoyed his past couple solo albums, so I'm looking forward to hearing this. I think the move back to folky black metal and away from the prog-metal style and predominantly English lyrics of Spiral Generator and Focusing Blur was a welcome one. I'm also glad that he's managed to become more productive. I know he was having problems balancing his music, family life, and career, but he built a home studio a few years ago and it's apparently helped him a great deal.
