A Sun That Never Sets is the seventh studio album from experimental/ post metal act Neurosis. Itīs a quite different album compared to their earlier releases and my first listens were not succesful. A Sun That Never Sets is a great album, though not what I would call a masterpiece. Lasting almost 70 minutes, it tends to drag a bit when listening to the entire album. Still, the album doesn't lack roughness, aggresion and slow, sludgy riffs.

A sun that never sets burns on. New light is this river's dawn. When to speak of a word so old is to relearn what is known. A time to think back and move on. Rebuild the loves of lives long gone. Absolutly beautifull.

What sets A Sun That Never Sets apart from the rest of Neurosis' truly impressive discography is that it ultimately strikes a perfect balance despite being their most eclectic album. It retains many of the aggressive characteristics of Through Silver and Blood while implementing a more reserved style of that which was predominant in their next release, The Eye of Every Storm. Creating a common ground ultimately allows this album to transcend the rest, allowing its strong imagery, styles and themes to create a classic album
