Without question, the heaviest album I have ever heard in my life. Nothing else even comes close, really. HLB's sound is the apocalypse distilled into music, and that's nothing to be said about the sheer technicality of the album. While Vildhjarta is still better, it's not by much. Best track - Passage   Mar 4, 2025

Probably the strongest debut album ever. Metalcore generally doesn't get any better than this, and every single song is top-class. Endlessly superior to their later work. The only issue is that the harsh vocals are kinda weak, though the stellar cleans more than make up for that. My #7 album of all time. Best song: Where We Go When We Die (that ending...)   Mar 4, 2025

I wasn't sure how The Raven Age would have improved after Conspiracy, but clearly, they know better than I do. This album is only held back by its length, practically everything else has a slight edge over their previous stuff. Tears of Stone especially manages to hit similar highs to Grave of the Fireflies from Conspiracy, which is not something I ever expected to see even come close to being reached.   Dec 25, 2024

A major improvement over Greyview, especially in the vocals department, this EP hits highs in its third song that even Heavener couldn't. As If It Never Was comfortably holds a spot in my top 10 songs of all time.   Dec 25, 2024

There are very, very few albums that can come close to this. Invent Animate has, over the course of their albums, continuously refined their unique sound, and here it reaches its zenith. While Vik's vocals held Greyview back a bit, he's so improved so drastically here that his vocals are one of the album's strongest points - and everything else has improved over Greyview, too. My #3 album of all time.   Dec 25, 2024

This album hits both incredible, jaw-dropping highs, and some very disappointing lows. The title track is one of the greatest musical masterpieces I have ever heard, but then there's also DYWTYLM. Consistency is a killer when it comes to listening to it fully, but there are several tracks that hit like nothing else out there.   Dec 25, 2024

The peak of metalcore, in my eyes. Every song is distinct and memorable on its own, and yet they all still flow together extremely well when listening to the full album. Better Days comfortably holds a spot as one of my top 10 songs. My #4 album of all time.   Dec 23, 2024

This is one of the greatest albums I have ever heard, period. Heard it back in 2022, and every single song has been a mainstay of my music rotation ever since. 10/10, my #2 album ever.   Dec 18, 2024

Incredible album, as typical of Valiant Hearts. While it falls just slightly short of Odyssey, this band always seems to catch lightning in a bottle. My favorite band of all time, and my 5th favorite album.   Dec 18, 2024

거칠기 그지없던, 정말 올드 블랙틱하기까지 했던 초창기의 사운드가 원시성과 야만성을 충분히 살린 채 정제된 3집. 이들의 명반에 들어가야 한다는 데엔 이견이 없다. 듣다보면 3집까지의 시간동안 이들에게도 여유와 관록이 붙었음을 연주력에서 확실히 느낄 수 있다. 아울러 아직까지는 타협치 않는다는 어떠한 고집도 느끼게 된다. 추억이 방울방울하네.   Mar 2, 2025

언제 들어도 좋은 심포닉 파워 메탈계의 명반   Mar 13, 2025

게임 매드무비에 넣을 곡이 더 생겼다 밴드 연주 작살난다 보컬리스트가 러셀 엘런같이 노래 개 잘한다 빠른 멜로디인데도 노래를 단단하고 웅장하게 잘 부른다. 있어야 할게 다 있는 파워 메탈의 정석   Mar 15, 2025

Great classic album.I think this is far better than the part 1.   Mar 3, 2025

One of the greatest hard rock/metal album.I think this is Coverdale's best album.   Mar 3, 2025

Great classic album with incredible songs like "The Evil That Men do","Moonchild" or "The Clairvoyant".   Mar 4, 2025

라브리에 해고해라   Mar 6, 2025

점차 공격성이 사라지고 서정성만을 추구하는 멜데스가 많아질수록 이 앨범은 빛을 발한다   Mar 9, 2025

잉베이의 열정적인 기타와 마크 볼즈의 절정의 보컬을 마음껏 만끽할 수 있어 이 앨범을 듣는것이 무척 즐겁다. 잉베이는 스스로의 실력도 대단하지만, 보컬 복이 참 많은 뮤지션인 것 같다.   Mar 10, 2025

I'm pretty sure this is the best debut in history. Sonata Arctica immediately does what they do best and the result is amazing. "FullMoon" is a great song.   Mar 11, 2025

Great album but not at the level of the debut in my opinion. The band tries a bit of progressive direction with pretty good results, although some songs are quite weak. The end of the album is great. Good job Sonata!   Mar 11, 2025

DT caught my attention with their previous album and this one confirms my thoughts on them. I´m not so fond of their old stuffs but these 2 keep me on my feet and I will go back to them regularly.   Mar 12, 2025

아무래도 이 1집에서는 많은 이들이 Sweet Child o' Mine을 꼽겠지만, 내게 있어서 이 앨범 최고의 곡은 절대적으로 Nightrain이다. 밴드의 정체성, 색깔, 연주력 등을 한 번에 대변해주는 곡이랄까. 심지어 가사까지 말이다. 같이 늙어간다는 말이 어울리겠지만, 그때의 열정 속에서 Nightrain을 외치고 연주를 하던 그들의 모습은 정말로 젊음의 영웅이자 양아치였다.   Mar 19, 2025

다시 살아난 폼은 떨어질 줄 모르고, 진짜 좋은데.. 정말 좋은데.. 짙게 드리운 어둠이라기에는 너무 명징하다. 컨셉에 맞는 분위기와 강약 조절을 좀만 더 했다면 명반 반열로 올라가는건데, 듣기 좋아서 더욱 그 한끝이 아쉽다.   1 day ago

One of their best moments !!!   Mar 2, 2025

helloween의 앤디를 연상케하는 보컬에 단단한 사운드가 인상적. 다만 귀를 사로잡는 멜로디라인이 부족하고 한결같은 보컬 창법과 기타톤 덕에 트랙들이 전부 비슷하게 들린다   Mar 2, 2025

역시 믿고 듣는 아이언 메이든이다. 헤비메탈계의 전설 중에 전설이라고 자신있게 말할 수 있는 앨범. 완벽 그 자체를 보여준다.   Mar 2, 2025

A return to form after catch 22.   Mar 2, 2025

엣모스페릭 블랙메틀 명반으로 꼽아도 손색이 없을, 매우 잘 만든 앨범이자 이 팀의 빼어난 정규작들 통틀어 베스트 앨범으로 꼽고 싶어요. 유튜브로 아이거 북벽 다큐를 먼저 시청한 후에 이 앨범을 듣는다면 감흥이 곱하기 몇배는 되겠습니다. 장엄한 스케일이 돋보이는 웅장하고 날카로우며 폭풍같은 미친 앨범. 100점 드세요.   Mar 2, 2025
