    I wonder what Arcturus guys thought when they first listened to this song after production. "Man, we made it." :) This song still amazes me after two or three hundred listenings (maybe much more, who counts), it has so much tension in it. If there are perfect songs, this is one of them.

    i don't really like the poem by itself that much (possibly due to it being overused to death by goth teenagers) but this music and garm's voice adds a whole lot of extra meaning to it for me. awesome.

    drrichardson’s Neighbourhood for the weirdest mix of music chosen by the Rock-N-Roll Reverend, Elvis "P" Monroe from his spaceship hovering high above Columbus Ohio.

    The best part IMO is where garm goes "I could not awaken my heart to joy, at the same tone, and all i love i loved alone" but hey, the whole songs is amazing

    Not only the drums, Garm's voice is so special. I don't know any voice alike it. They've done good going clean vocals
