Philosophical atmospheric black with some folk influences.
I like Panopticon but this release has left an inconsistent impression.
It's not bad, acoustic and calm tracks are decent but overall it feels underwhelming.
Composition and sound are very flat, almost no bumps. Ears get tired and you don't feel any difference.
The composition is also quite weird. Tracks feel like they start in the middle and end somewhere.
The picture is muddy, nothing there to stick to.
Sadly saved nothing. Will hope for better future releases.
