Anyone here pick it up? Man its amazing, By far Ihsahn's best work, and maybe even tops his work in Emperor (Don't get me wrong I love Emperor). The riffs are just monstrous and melodic, the solos are extremely tasteful, from slow haunting to blistering fast legato.
PS Oh yeah, this CD also has the mythical collaboration between Mikael Akerfeldt and Ihsahn himself, the song called "Unhealer" they wrote together. Mikael does some clean and growls on it, and then Ihsahns adds his own hellish voice to it. The vocal trade-offs are beastly!

Ahh so Mikael did do Vocals in that song. Me and my friend was listening to it, and then it started to sound like Opeth. Haha, I shall pick it up as soon as I can.

I like his solo albums kind of in the same way I like Diabolical Masquarade. It's good for a while, but then I just get bored with it. But I suppose that's just me. I really loved the song with Mike though.

Great album, haha in the Unhealer chorus I always imagine Akerfeldt's demonic growl as if he's a huge beastial god type creature, and Ihsahn's as a small minion like Golem from LOTR lmfao *shrug*
DON'T ASK. Just my view
