According to Orthodox Easter, Christ will be resurrected by the end of this specific week, springtime unfolds its wings in a shy way, slowly but steadily, the flowers bloom, the butterflies dance and "The Vampire From Nazareth" is about to be awakened. Well, my dear friends, this is the most appropriate moment of the year for a new Septicflesh album.

Rating: 10 Stupid people are stupid.

Everywhere I go, metal artists have fans that complain, "This band is so underrated, people don't know what music and true talent is."

Then when a band finally gets the attention it deserves, those same fans complain, "This band is so overrated, they sold out."

Stupid people are stupid.

Stupid people are stupid.

Looking at your response, I must say I respectfully agree.

Rating: 9 As a huge Symphonic Metal fan, I couldn't miss this album... I usually like the softer side of the genre (like Epica, Nightwish), but after the big hype, I had to give it a try. I didn't like it first, thought all songs sound the same, are too short, and the clean vocals suck. But after a few spins I strated to appreciate it, and now it's one of my favourites. Have to check out their earlier work too. Sometimes the hype is deserved

Rating: 7 Where are the epic melodies as found in their previous album. Beautiful tracks like Anubis, Sunlight/Moonlight, Sangreal....This album relies too heavily on the symphonic elements and vicious drumming to achieve something atmospheric. Although their signature sound remains, I can hardly tell the tracks apart after a spin or two.

A few tracks (namely Rising and Apocalypse) prove an exception, but remain mediocre best
