This is currently #1090 on my album list (and #16 for 2009 for those keeping track at home), but I also haven't revisited it in nearly a decade and it's in a genre I have grown to appreciate more in that time. So, hopefully, it will bump up a bit as I relisten.

Unfortunately, I don't have strong enough opinions on the tracks or this genre to try writing opinions on individual songs this week.

My ranking:
1. Divinations
2. The Czar: Usurper/Escape/Martyr/Spiral
3. Oblivion
4. Crack the Skye
5. The Last Baron
6. Ghost of Karelia
7. Quintessence

Now that I have relistened, I definitely have a better appreciation. But I also feel that it's an album that works better as a whole. Progressive metal combines two genres I'm rather oblivious to, and I'm going to have difficulty differentiating between these tracks in a day or two. Still, the overall sound is outstanding.

Now I play the waiting game on nominations, hoping someone supports Silent Shout so I don't have to double up on it.
