Some albums you hear are full of good moments. Some mostly contain bad parts. With Quasar's debut album, it's a bit of a mixed bag. Maybe I'm not being fully clear though, it's not really lots of awful stuff and some okay features, it's an album that progresses through reasonableness while giving you these highlights here and there all the way through. The band plays a fairly hard to categorise type of metal too. The best description would probably be Progressive Black Metal although the vocals are a sort of half and half Death Metal growl and Black Metal rasp.
