It is the sound of a hydra being born—chaotic, poetic, and drenched in the melancholy of Nordic forests. However, for years, audiophiles and die-hard fans have lamented the album's production. While its composition was genius, its dynamic range was often crushed, lost in the “loudness war” transfers of the early 2000s.
