Title: What happened?
Review: I'm not sure what Tiamat is trying to do here. If anyone enjoyed the lovely intracacies and atmospherics of Wildhoney and A Deeper Kind of Slumber will be quite surprised with this one. I'm just wondering what happened to the guitar. It seems they decided to put the vocals in the forefront. This would be fine except Johan Edlund doesn't have much variety or range in his vocal abilities. I would say the one highlight of the album was The Church of Tiamat. This did bring back a few memories of the Tiamat I appreciate. This album will definitely not hurt any of their commerial appeal in Europe. Hopefully, the next album will continue on with their progression from A Deeper Kind of Slumber.
