Album Review
Ragnar of Ravensfjord
Reviewed 2007-01-20
Rather odd but interesting mix of indie rock, prog, metal and ethereal. Not too far from things like Dog Fashion Disco, Neurosis, Secret Chiefs 3 (though not quite as crazy as the latter).

(((1))) Slow, minimal, low-in the mix noise & eerie heartbeat
((((2)))) Metallic doom, psych-laden keys, oft-kilter kinda whiney vocals that actually work.
(((((3))))) Slow, slinky, indie, psych & prog rock with horn. Lots of innovation and varation.
((((4)))) Heavy rock with Neurosis-like male vox and ethereal female vocals.
(((((5)))) Acoustic psych intro that builds into a nice Isis/Neurosis-like structure.
(((6))) Nice noise warble & voice effect.
((((7)))) Strummy, heavy rock that moves from bombast to introspective and mellow.
(((((8))))) Epic mix of dreamy, slow psych/indie to lunging doom riffs. Awesome!
