I'll see if I can up it later on today. The Mantle is probably my favourite followed by Pale Folklore... or maybe the other way around - it's hard to decide.

I am upping The Mantle right now so if you are going to upload something then do Pale Folklore. I also think that is their next best album.

They're good. Definitely a band I have to be in the mood for though.

Yeah I can't listen to their third album unless I am in a black metal mood. I am usually listening to Windir right before I listen to that album.

I am listening to THE MANTLE now-f[u]cking wow! Absolutely love it. If i like it on first listening, then it will only get better. Have you guys heard FIELDS OF THE NEPHILIM? A highly influential goth/rock band from the U.K who had a massive bearing on bands like this and OPETH etc. Their music is very intricate but powerful at the same time.

This is their first album from 1987, and evry album is always slightly different from the last.

Yeah FOTN are good. Ulver's first album also had a huge influence on Agalloch.

Does anyone listen to Agalloch? They are a folk/metal band from Portland, OR and they are amazing. Their latest CD is so epic I can't sit still when listening to it. I hope someone out there wants to talk about them!

All I have is The Mantle. It's decent.

I have not gotten to hear mantle yet but I will soon. You really should hear their latest it would be well worth it. It is so beautiful. Thank you for responding.

Very solid band, and Ashes is a great release that shows a less folky side than previous outings.
