THREE TIMES SEVEN ON A PILGRIMAGE

This album is a letdown to me comparing to their previous outstanding albums because of multiple reasons: 1.) There isn't very strong musicianship and creativity. 2.) Cover songs are way behind their originals. 3.) Lack of cohesion and own spirit in the music.

Having said that, guys still remain authentic and belong to the more interesting bands in atmospheric metal. I prefer much more their original songs than cover versions which are only interesting when heard initially. "Karmakosmik" and "Mourning The Death Of Aase" are highlights for me here. "Soundtrack For Cycoz 1st Ed" is completely out of the album's spirit and show electronic attempts at movie music.

Good but definitely not essential.
