"This album is genius, So if your a true fan of melodic death(not a fan of "melodic" "hardcore" or nu-"metal"), then you must have this album."

Not Bad!

"Hailing from Finland, Omnium Gatherum could best be described as Enthrone Darkness Triumphant/Stormblast-era Dimmu Borgir with some Insomnium. Combining soft, lush keyboards with furious riffs and drumming, Omnium Gatherum are poised to be one of Finlands best. While there sophmore album was a bit of a let down, Spirits and August Light is absolutely amazing.



Favorite tracks include Deathwhite, which cuts straight into a nice heavy, sludgy riff, the slow and bass-heavy Perfumed Garden, and the chaotic Amor Tonight, but I did not once skip.



If your fans of pure melodic death metal, and are wanting to get into Finnish metal that isnt CHildren of Bodom, get this, along with Kalmahs Swamplord, Insomniums Since the Day it all Came Down, and Sentenced's North From Here."
