Good to hear this is on the horizon, eager to hear something from it to know what type of album it is.

I'm keeping my expectations low. "Amanethes" is one of my favorite albums of all times, and unfortunately nearly all my go-to bands have released albums lately that aren't as good as the previous releases, so I'm expecting this to bomb. Hopefully I'm proven massively wrong.

Just got the promo and listened through. It's definitely a very different album from "Amanethes" in terms of themes and direction, but it's got some pretty awesome stuff going on.

Neat! Can't wait for the review :) I suppose a change is hardly a surprise, Tiamat seem to have a consistent record of reinventing the formula even if they could have milked the last one for the rest of their careers.
