I voted for Age of Capricorn (nice and introspective), Arena Americanada (reminds me so much of New Seeds), and The Process (fav track along w/ You Retreat in Time and Space), Naraka and The Word Becomes Flesh are also great.

Impossible!

I Saw Through Platonia was my 3rd pick for now, so beautiful and layered and so many hidden sounds inside that haziness.

The Process is my personal favorite. It's a heavy experience to listen to. It hits me the same way 5.9.78 and The Beach at Redpoint hit me.

Came here to say similar! That final piano bit has that same gutpunch as the end of Olson...

Still haven’t listened to most of these. Interesting they chose Prophecy as the single and produced a massive video but it’s not in most people’s top 3.

I like it but there’s something a little strenuous about it. I wonder if the boys actually liked it the best or just thought it was a good bait to use

Such an unfair poll. To be honest I'm having a rough time picking one I don't like as much. That could have been Father and Son in my first listen, but not anymore, not ever.
Right now I'm not too crazy about Into the Magic Land, a track that feels awesome but underdeveloped, especially standing beside Blood On The Labyrinth. But that like everything is bound to change.

After listening to the album a grand total of three times, I'll go with Naraka, All Reason Departs and You Retreat.

Very interested to check back in over the coming year(s) to see how much this changes. See you in the future!

FWIW I think Prophecy has all the sizzle - stunningly huge track and moderately easy for IDM fans to wrap heads around - so it's a perfect single / album teaser. But in the context of the album, there's others that grow on you. It's in my top 5... probably... perhaps top 6

Age of Capricorn (those background vocals/chants - goosebumps! Some would say it is MARVELOUS)
Deep Time (one of the best things they've ever done? I think so)
You Retreat... (just beautful. Especially love the bass...)

The results being so spread is really interesting. There's a few standouts but there's also something to love in all the corners of this one.

Though Arena Americanada was almost my 3rd. That track just slaps

Very similar to my Top 3!

Capricorn
Naraka
Deep Time

Close runners-up are H.H.L.L., All Reason Departs, Arena Americana, and You Retreat.

The only tracks I'm NOT currently in love with are Father & Son (but steadily growing on me!) and Into the Magic Land.

It says something about this record that I've about 10 tracks in my top 3. Currently:

Word Becomes Flesh (the sheer density / detail / punch / creativity)
Blood In The Labyrinth (that powerful dulcimer / sitar strum)
You Retreat (probably the best track on the album)
