Lead guitarist Tom Gardiner (Hateform, ESSENCE OF SORROW, ex-MORS PRINCIPIUM EST) has posted the following track by track review of the album:

'The Close Beyond': "Wow, what can I say? Great song to open up this album! Still can't get over how that 8-string part catches you off guard! Sounds like a rusty hook from below impaling you and dragging you down to hell or something! Me likes!

'Gravitational Lensing': "By now, this track should be one of the more known tracks since it's been online for a while. And with good reason! I think it's worth the extra attention! Great song!"

'Through Night-Kingdomed Gates': "Maybe my personal favorite. Christian's vocal arrangements on the verse parts were a nice surprise to me since I always assumed it would be a growling part. The outro vocal parts are awesome too! Also watch out for some axe trading from me and Jani!!"

'For Aeons Past': "Similarly surprised, this time I pictured a melodic verse instead of the growling vocals, but damn, kicks maximum ass just as it is! Christian is full of surprises! But after a few listenings, I can see why this is the title track!"

'Lethean Tears': "Ladies, we're coming for YOU!!"

'6 Bladed Vaults': "This track brings alot of fond memories. I've played some of the pre-production versions of this one on different clinics and guitar fares! One time in Oulu, Finland, I had a clinic-duet with Wintersun drummer Kai Hahto and we played this track together! He actually learned the song in a real short notice and we jammed through with no problem! Great guy. This one has some Chopin-influenced guitar soloing! Hope this track will bring fond memories to you too, in time! Enjoy."

'Wirethrone': "Brutality and passion captured in a sonical entity! This has my favourate chorus at the moment. Soaring melody with brutal vocals! Kind of like the beauty and the beast, except we ain't no beauties(but ladies, we can be your beasts!).. Very soulful song!"

'On Embered Fields Abust': "Like 'Blade Vaults', I've played this one on clinics and with Mr. Hahto too. Some psychedelic solos coming your way!"

'Into Shadow': "I think this is the most soulful song on the album (well, in my opinion of course..)!"

'Clandestinity Now': "Long song, so short description: EPIC! Three songs in one."
