Elevation

Our rating, out of 100 — and why.

AI-generated from five scored dimensions. An opinion, not a measurement.

65 /100
Treeline
Higher than 40% of albums we've rated

A focused run of riff-driven, Finnish-language songs, with a consistent weight and delivery but limited departure from the band's established approach.

What we noticed

  • The nine-track sequence is vocal-led throughout; it has no instrumental interlude to break up the run of songs.
  • The title track sits fourth, after the opening three songs, while “Te ette tarvitse minua” closes the album.
  • The arrangements lean on heavy, repeated guitar riffs and a steady, weighty pulse rather than extended solo sections.

Influence 5/10

Significant within its genre. Reported but not counted — how far a record travelled describes its reception rather than the record, and a newer release has had less time to travel than an older one.
