Here's my rating for the tracks:

al fine (10/10)
consolation (9.5/10)
moonfesta (ムーンフェスタ) (9/10)
Door (10/10)
Mirai (未来; Future) (9/10)
Hanataba (花束; Bouquet) (10/10)
Signal (6/10)
obbligato (9/10)
Kiichigo no Shigemi ni (木苺の茂みに; Raspberry Bushes) (8.5/10)
Manten (満天; Sea's Sky) (9/10)
to the beginning (9.5/10)
Hikari Furu (ひかりふる; Falling Lights) (9.5/10)
Yume no Daichi (夢の大地; Land of Dreams) (10/10)

Comments:
- Overall, AMAZING album! I can understand why people are calling it their weakest, since their albums are SO strong to begin with.
- I don't know if I like the tracklist. I feel like it's too jerky how the moods change so easily from sad to angry to happy to nostalgic and back to happy. It should've been smoother. I'd like to see them really do a concept album, which the intro to the album, "al fine", would've been perfect for.
- Only song I don't like is signal. It's okay in parts, but in some parts it's next to unbearable!


To rank their albums now, I'd say:
1) Seventh Heaven (10)
2) Consolation (9.5/10) and Red Moon (9.5/10)
4) After Eden (9/10)

Consolation is just different from their usual style, that's why it's kind of hard to accept, several times listening might help.

Anyway, the setlist of “Consolation” Special LIVE 2013, very interesting!
Spoiler:
Setlist

Consolation
Kyrie

MC1
moonfesta
Mune no yukue
Hanataba
sandpiper
Magia

MC2
Kiichigo no shigemi ni
Hikari no senritsu
Door
Mirai

MC3
ARIA
magnolia
destination unknown
signal
obbligato

MC4
Manten
to the beginning

[Encore]
Al fine
Hikari Furu

MC5
Yume no Daichi


Combination of old and new songs but mostly from new album, looking forward to this!

Also, Kajiura held some talk about consolation album, a must read for everyone!

Anyway, is anyone wondering what is the meaning behind the title "al fine" ?

I actually really like the cover. They don't have to be on the covers all the time. It somehow makes things different. And I've always loved their logo, so having almost nothing but it on the cover still looks too beautiful. Still, it is somehow strange that for this single all of sudden they decided to go for something like this.

I don't care if the singer didn't appear on the cover. But here, it's the third time Kalafina is using that kind of cover. It's why it's boring.

I think is ok if they aren't in the cover, but i think they could put something else.
