Tiamat - The Astral Sleep

One of the very, very, very best melodic Death Metal albums ever! When listened to in a dark room, lying on the floor with closed eyes, the music virtually surrounds you like a huge acoustic dome, it has a sacral feeling to it that's maybe only understandable if you're 15 years old and just begin to explore the realm of hard Metal music.. ;)
I have nothing more to say really... Well, I've heard better sound productions, but that's just about it with the criticism. Together with the successing "Clouds" this is one of the 10 most important albums in my life.
