What we noticed
- The album opens with a fast-paced track, 'War Ensemble', and maintains a high energy level through the first half before introducing more melodic elements in the latter tracks.
- The last two tracks, 'Born of Fire' and 'Seasons in the Abyss', slow down the pace significantly, creating a sense of resolution as the album concludes.

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.
