This is one of my favourite albums of all time, from the beautifully crafted riffs to the shreddy bass playing that compliments the guitar work extremely well to the tight drumming and amazing vocal performance. I can't say enough good things about this album, it's just so good. The first time I sat down and really paid attention to the intricacies of the music I was in awe at how people can write music this good. Some parts are better than others but the whole thing is a truly amazing work of art. If you don't want to check out the whole album then I suggest checking out the songs Septuagint, Vortex Omnivium, Ocean Gateways, Prismal Dawn and Celestial Spheres.
