It is for me "again" a typical Be'lakor album.... The first time you listen to it, you get the impression that it's "okay". After the 10th, 11th, 12th time the "Be'lakor feeling" slowly comes and the music seeps deeper and deeper into the brain. And then suddenly it's there, the feeling of enjoying a "perfect" piece of music. Thank you very much for creating this feeling every time with every CD. Now only the corresponding tour in Germany is missing...

Top quality metal again. Agree that they are one of the most underrated bands around, they always deliver modern death metal with melody and a nod to the past too. On this album they give the heaviness a chance to breathe with the quieter moments and that makes it all the more effective, rather than a full on 100% growl and aggression style. They don't seem to have toured Europe extensively over the years and that may have affected their chances of making it bigger, which is a crying shame. They deserve success and are a band of the highest quality.
