Nice review of a great album. I got it just a couple days ago and I simply love it. Any fan of Immortal needs to check out this album.

@Christ_13: Well, I've clearly shown my opinion, I've listened to it 1 month before writing this review, so I can say that Between Two Worlds deserves to be a 9 rated review. Now about the originality, I firmly said that Abbath has written some of the strongest metal riffs in recent years in the vein of Slayer, Iron Maiden and Motorhead, so for a black metal band, yes it is, I've never seen a band turning to another style in a such almost-perfect way. If you don't agree with me, that's ok but tell me why. Saying "pufff!! I don't think so" is very unprofessional.

I dislike the Motorhead sound to it. Very demeaning somehow. Way too high rating IMO. Even 8 would have been acceptable. Few tracks are ok and its quite easy to listen but after listening to Immortal for so many years now, this is really quite ordinary..! Maybe someone who likes a bit of contemporary style Black Metal would really like it. I may give it a 7 max..

Agree with Himann here. I don't get what people see so special in this, apart from Abbath & Immortal connection. Ok, there are some good moments (in the spirit of later Immortal, the easy-listening bm we all love) but I'd give it probably 6 or 7.

I agree with the others. The rating is just too high for this album. I liked the album to some extent but its not good enough for 9. Maybe 7.

I was quite puzzled about this cd when I bought it, I mean it was really good, but at the same time, it got boring so incredibly fast. I liked your review, but I would probably rate it lower.

It is a good album, but I agree that it drops lower in my ratings each listen. At first, I thought it was amazingly awesome. Now, I'd give it a 7.5, probably. It's definitely worth checking out, but at the same time it doesn't captivate the listener as much as it ought to.

Thank you all for your comments. I think you're right, It deserves an 8. Unfortunately I can't edit my ratings. Otherwise, I advise you to listen to it more than once, as I said, I was listening to it one month before reviewing it, with each repeated listen I discovered something new that could be described as something between lines, something that we can't easily discover it with 4 or 5 times per day. So please give it another chance and listen to it, not because it's an impressive return of Abbath or because it's an album from an all-star lineup but because Between Two Worlds deserves your intentions. Thank you.

Great album, decent review. Motorhead being my favorite band I naturally loved this BM influenced motorhead style heavy metal instantly. Good review.

Everyone is talking about what it sounds like, and not one of you have said that it sounds like Immortal. well, This sounds like Immortal, rocking your fucking socks off! cheesy voice and bad lyrics, PERFECT black metal party songs! I should of have given it a 5 if i wouldn't such a fan of Immortal, but just because i am, its a nice 8. But thats just my opinion, and if the reviewer thinks its a 9. He probably believes thats the appropriates rating!

I totally agree with the score, I might even give a higher one. It's such a great album, I've been listening to it for a couple of months and I can't get enough of it.

I think it's a really weak record. mostly due to weak vocals, but even due to a rock attitude that is quite annoying and uninspired (you compare it Mothorhead, well I can agree only if you are referring to their worst records...).
it trys to recall Immortal later works with an even more easy listening approach...after the first full listening it started to get annoying and disappointing....It's a record to listen, consume and throw away in a few days.
some songs are nice though, and it deserves respect for trying another (new? uhm...not) way instead of the most secure one.
a 6 is the max I could give it.

I agree with many that it will become boring after a while.. But like I do with many other bands I get tired of, I simply put them away, and at later time I will listen to them again - for me it's like listening to them for the first time.

I think this album is awesome. Pretty many catchy songs I liked when I first listened this album.
Anyway, you can't give this album 10, because after a while it sounds boring.

Great songs, I like Immortal trademark voice and the Venom/Motorhead feeling on this album, nothing groundbreaking or fresh but still a great album to simply enjoy. This is something I can listen when I'm on my way to school.

Great album, im a huge immortal fan but i dont think that thiseven should be remotly connected to thier works(thou i as everyone else se the infliction of them upon the music) because this is a totaly exluded band, i would give it a 8, great groove and a rock n roll feeling that gives me a party mood unlike any other, listened to it for some time now and it still grows on me, at the start i tought it wasnt above ordinary but it just keeps getting better.

I agree. I don't see what special or even remotely interesting some people find in this album.
Even if Abbath is on the album, it doesn't sound like Immortal at all. It sounds like Motörhead, a band I always disliked.
And yes, it doesn't sound like Black Metal but like very old school metal and Rock'n'Roll. Outdated and boring.
Imo, it's a totally useless record that brings nothing new, innovative or interesting. Let's just hope Abbath won't have the bad idea to do something similar with "All Shall Fall". We'll see next month.

I agree with the first part of this comment, but certainly not the second. I love this album! It has so many hooks in it, I can't help but to it!
