Summary: The Unhealer of Souls
Comment: (English)
In a few words, it's clearly the best metal album in 2008. There are great runner-ups: Leviathan, Lair of the Minotaur, Arsis, Draconian, Testament and Ayreon have made amazing efforts, but Ihsahn's AngL combines sensibility with strength, making it an accesible head-blowing masterpiece. His black metal heritage is there, although in a more mature and elegant way, and the lyrics are blasphemous yet intelligent. If you're still not conviced to buy this album, just listen to "Unhealer", his collaboration with Mikael Akerfeldt from Opeth. No doubt, we're in front of one of the greatest musicians of our time.
(Espanol)
En pocas palabras: es sencillamente el mejor album de 2008. Hay grandes finalistas: Leviathan, Lair of the Minotaur, Arsis, Draconian, Testament y Ayreon produjeron obras impresionantes, pero AngL de Ihsahn mezcla perfectamente fuerza y sensiblidad, convirtiendolo en una obra maestra que, aunque te volara la cabeza, lo hara de manera accesibe. Su ruda herencia blackmetalera esta presente, pero con madurez y elegancia, y las letras, aunque son blasfemas, son inteligentes. Y si aun no estan convencidos de comprar el album, tan solo escuchen "Unhealer", su colaboracion con Mikael Akerfeldt de Opeth. Sin duda, estamos ante uno de los mas grandes compositores de nuestra era.

Summary: Fantastic
Comment: This album blew me away. Im 29 years old and have been listening to metal for many years, but over the past few years of my life Ive grown tired of it and seemed to think none of it was ever going to get better. But one day I ramdomly found this album at a local record store and I havent stopped listening since. The arrangments and musicianship is amazing. Do yourself a favor and buy this album. Even if youre not a metal fan, youll at least be able to appreciate his talent.

Summary: Can't stop listening
Comment: Just as good, if not better, than "The Adversary." Not as much use of falsetto vocals though, which I liked on the first album, but the songwriting is more varied, deep, and memorable here. Track three features Mikael Akerfeldt of Opeth - it's one of my new favorite songs, but I'm a bit biased (being a big-time Opeth fan). A lot of beautifully ambient passages scattered throughout the tracks. I'd venture to say this is better than Emperor, even though black metal geeks would have me hanged for that sentiment; this isn't really black metal, it's dark metal with some black metal influence. If you like dark music of any sort, don't hesitate to get this.

Summary: First Ihsahn experience - fantastic
Comment: A great mix of metal styles - if you like black or melodic death metal, you should try this. I predict this album makes many top 10 lists for the year. Highly recommended.

Summary: WOW!!!
Comment: FANTASTIC. If you enjoyed his first solo effort, you will find this one FAR more entertaining, as it is deeper, more layered, and aggressive.
I loved his first, but this buries it. Thanx
