so far the latest, seventh album by celebrated Icelandic phenomenon sounds quite familiar if you have been following the band's career at least for the past ten years: characteristically vintage vibe, non-conformist attitude, intricate genre limits transcending passages, as well as haunting and mostly depressing atmosphere sum up nine soul-touching tracks that would perfectly fit on the soundtrack of some psychological thriller, stepping outside the comfort zone on more than few occasions, with a nice nod to the black metal heyday coming in shape of Dionysos, which surprises with quite an intense, dramatic build-up; gatefold sleeve double marble blue vinyl edition with arty twelve page LP sleeve sized lyric booklet and pro-printed inner sleeves is limited to 1100 units
