As you are reading this I take it you have some prior knowledge on the phenomenon that is Mayhem, therefore no introduction is needed here. Mayhem's previous release, Grand Declaration of War, was received with a ton of negative criticism (most of which was justifiable) which left hope among fans for future albums at an all-time low. Four years later, Maniac and his three fellow Norsemen came back on the scene and proved them all wrong with the release of 2004's album Chimera.

I think it's one of the strongest "Pure" Black Metal album (without other elements like Symphonic). My precise rating is "8.5".
---- Stop seeing things and people in a binary way. Everything has its own spectrum and complexity. Be patient and learn about the world.

Not mind blowing, but not bad either. It's got nothing on the album that followed it, though.

Very sinister and just pure evil sounding album. One of Mayhems best:devil:
---- 'The thoughts of dead babies Wiped away with my semen'
