Elevation

Our rating, out of 100 — and why.

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

49 /100
Lowland
Higher than 1% of albums we've rated

Strong material from across the band's catalog, but the jumps between remasters, studio finds and live cuts make the collection feel assembled rather than sequenced as an album.

What we noticed

  • The 15-track sequence alternates remastered cuts with studio and live versions; the fourth track is live, followed by a remastered studio cut.
  • Live recordings recur at tracks 7, 11, 13 and 14, so changes in recording context interrupt the run of remastered material.
  • The final three tracks switch from a remastered song to a live performance and then a studio version, rather than closing with a consistent recording texture.

Known within its scene. 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.
