Brilliant...the last one was great too, but I think they´ve raised the bar with this one. It´s nicely melodic but pretty heavy too. Alder is a godly vocalist and Again delivers a passionate performance. This one will end high on my year end list.

Great album, which grows on each new listen. I think they´re more melodic here than on the last couple of releases, and it´s a part of their sound I´ve missed since Parallels/Inside Out, so I´m really happy with this Development. It´s still very different from those two releases though, as it´s a really heavy album too. So there´s a good balance between the melodic and accessible and the heavy and progressive. Right now I´m thinking this is a 5 star release, but I need to give it more spins before I decide.

^ Yes, it's a very good album though not one of my favourite Enslaved albums - I'd probably rate it about the middle of their back catalogue. I think the last 2 albums are their best ever.
