    During summer break - when I was at grandma's - I used to stay up all night and wait for her to wake up, at around 4:00 am. We'd have a cup of coffee and chat a bit, then - at around 5:00 am, I'd climb to the house's roof with her and stargaze. Eventually she would come down and I'd stay there alone listening to this masterpiece while witnessing the dawn.
    Miss it badly.

    I remember being 15 and this album being an unprecedented and unusual sound for me to somehow delve into. Years later, I think WOD for bringing me to all corners of music and being one of the most influential bands in my lifetime.

    been listening to Woods of Desolation since High School (I started off with their split with Drohtnung) which actually came out a year before that time, (which was a while ago now...I'm getting old). And back then there was virtually no fan base, its incredible to see how far "D" has come. Anyways, that aside, I recall the first time I listened to this album all the way through, I had just purchased it and was listening to it while walking home at night after work, my neighborhood has a small forest which I was going through, you could see the sky peeking through the tree tops, it was fall almost winter so you could see the stars, and the warmth that was still in the air was just enough to make the scent of the pine trees very strong....I was overwhelmed with emotion from the melancholy melodies and heartfelt vocals....It made my eyes swell up with tears...but not sad tears, they were tears of joy that something so beautiful could exist during such a miserable part of my life (I won't go into detail, but I was not doing well health wise and felt like giving up on so many things) and I truly mean it when I say this album got me through that time, and continues to get me through tough times with my auto immune conditions, and ailments/illnesses. I fucking love Woods of Desolation and always will. Unfold and This Autumn Light. (ofc Like Falling Leaves and every single song on this album and every WOD album are all fucking amazing), but those are my two most replayed on the album.

I am also not doing so good in life currently and this is very helpful. Nothing but music helps. I will surely check out more albums from this band!

    I remember I listened to this as soon as it came out, back in 2014, which was a beautiful year for me. Brings back so many memories of 2014s autumn and winter, being with friends, enjoying the countryside, the bittersweet emotion of the World Cup (I'm Argentinian, we ended up second back then).. thanks so much for this, for being there in those beautiful moments, specially for "As falling leaves", "This autumn light", "Anamnesis", and of course, a song that legit made me cry: Ad Infinitum
    Thanks, WOD, really

    Some people think Deathspell Omega's albums are for intelligent people, but I think that bans like Woods of Desolation, Drudkh, Forteresse and Winterfylleth are also very intelligent black metal with their beautifully crafted atmospheres. Deathspell Omega are intelligent chaos, but Woods of Desolation are intelligent beauty

    I kinda feel like this was mixed the way it is intended to be heard, with the melodies at the forefront and the drums, while at times very powerful, supporting those melodies rather than drowning them out in overly abrasive snare and bass drum strokes. I think it was a choice that worked well for showcasing an aptitude for melody building.

      Torn Beyond Reason was pretty much perfect.

      I'm still waiting after 4 years. I still have hope for another amazing album from this band.

      For me this is better than Torn Beyond Reason. I Dont like the Clean vocals on the Album.

      Quality is amazing to me. Check your phone. Plus Black Metal and subgenres are often recorded with lower quality on purpose.

      If the sound not being crisp is a stopper for you. You may have a lot of trouble appreciating most black metal albums
