"I know this is only a collection of obscure tracks, of minor relevance even for many fans of the group.

"A perfect synthesis of 30 years of psychedelic rock. Seven long, noisy space-rock tracks that make your mind flow away in a timeless dimension." Reply
"Everything a black metal record should be. Life Eternal and Funeral Fog still give me the shivers. It's dark and incredibly eery.
