Aaron Turners clean vocals improved alot on WR and his growls were just spot on. The songs are great on the album and wor good together.

The only thing that I can complain about Wavering Radiant is that sometimes the sound on the album is little too "good" if you can say that. It sounds a little "glassy" from time to time but that isn't a big complaint.

Wavering Radiant is in my opinnion the best Isis album right after Panopticon and Oceanic.
Slightly different but I agree with your overall perception

The bolded words describe every Isis album. But, to me, Absence of Truth happens to be .. the least favorable hypnotic experience the band offers.
