Ive had pretty good time with this album and i think for what its trying to achieve its pretty good overall even tho its nothing really special

the vocals and riffs are a huge highlight. THE standout song for me is definitely the cimmerian. made me shed a fucking tear.
besides that, makeshift harmony's chorus is the other highlight.
