I have yet to listen to any of their albums, but i have heard only great things about them and getting some of their music is a high priority.

I only managed to get this EP last week and was once again impressed and agree about the cover. I also got the Grey E.P which seemed to divide opinion with a new interpretation of The Lodge. I thought it was an interesting take and certainly worthy of another listen.

Ugh, I really despise Agalloch. They're incredibly boring and repetitive. It seems like the only set who like them are the fans of Ulver & Opeth.

That whole set of metal is just incredibly crass... antlers? Really?

It's as though they fail to see being unique and innovative doesn't involve using random noises that add nothing to a song. While that may not be damning in and of itself, their songs just... suck.

I was introduced to them a few weeks ago, for a few days i was pretty into them, but they got dull fairly fast.

I still enjoy listening to them from time to time.

"Tomorrow Will Never Come" is the most beautiful yet bleak song I have ever heard. There's so much raw emotion in the pluck of each string it's ridiculous.

Anybody got the leak?

I was going to download it just now, I could get you a link if you're interested. I've heard only amazing things about it.
