"After listening to the amazing Northern Lights, I was thinking "how the hell can they top that?!". Well Aurora Borealis sure pulled out and did it. The amazing opener "Triumph Again" kinda starts out like "Thrice Told"(from Northern Lights) with it's light speed riffing and beats. The 2nd track "Sky Burial" is my personal favorite. During the chorus plays one of the best riffs I have ever heard. This whole cd is a concept album inspired by lots of history, and the song "Berserker" inspired the cover art. Included are also 2 bonus tracks (remade on the first cd Mansions of Eternity) by Ron's old band Lestregus Nosferatus. All in all, this album completely shreds with his own original mix of death metal, history inspired lyrics, and black metalic vocals. Totally amazing."
