    Ultimately, Ascension is guaranteed to rub fans the right way, and it’s adventurous enough to open up new avenues for the future, and at the end of the day, what more can you ask for?

    Ascension hits the sweet spot between the gnarliness they've re-embraced over the last decade and the goth-tinged grandeur and sense of melody that has always been a part of their music. [Oct 2025, p.75]

    Ascension is a truly substantial body of work, but it’s executed with an almost ghostly lightness of touch. Evidence of artists who have mastered their dark craft and another late-career triumph from one of metal’s most enduringly brilliant bands.
