A classic of black metal art: strong but yet eerie, fast but not overpaced. Remaind me the good old times.

For me this doesn't just sound like any typical black metal album, it seems more mature and cleverly constructed than most, and has a nice middle eastern sound to it. I thoroughly enjoyed the riffs, they are very catchy and have lots of melody to them, whilst keeping the raw black sound like early black metal.

It's a shame this album gets overlooked, as it's just as good as some of Rotting Christ's best work. The only downside to the album is the riffs do kind of get repetitive, like on Where the walls sleep, which does get a tad boring, and some of the songs perhaps could of been a bit shorter, but that's not too much of a problem for me.

No matter how much I listen to these guys (or Rotting Christ for that matter), I keep hearing the same guitar pattern over and over, pretty much the one from the first half of Unholy Funeral off their debut. That simple mid-tempo thrashy riff that just keeps repeating. Seems like the Greeks are as obsessed with it as they are with wine, cheese, and street riots. That said, the album is good, the first and last tracks are killers, and Dismal King and Lord of Illusions are great too.
