 Celestial Lineage, it’s useless to deny it with false hypocrisies of a hardened scribbler intent on shooting down everything and everyone, is that masterpiece we expected from them, the last piece of a sonic and harmonic journey that has garnered quite a few devotees since its steps were imprinted in the damp and stagnant soil of the darkest and most impenetrable forest, and in the hearts of us ordinary mortals.
