Oh sweet monkey flaps.

Just wanna say that this is their first artwork that I think it SUCKS.

But oh well...

It got leaked, and from my first listen of it, I think the album fits well with the artwork (quite underwhelming). I'll give it a few more shots before I make my final judgement though.

I think Black Masses is much more psychedelic and droney than Witchcraft today; WT is more straight forward. But I still don't really know which one is better. Does anyone have a opinion on that: Withcult Today of Black Masses?

I'd go Witchcult every time personally, I prefer the balance and actually I just think the songs are better in all. I personally find the vocal production a little harsh which works against the psychedelic nature of the record. It's still a great album anyway.

I think that also: Witchcult Today is more balanced and tighter, all in all better. Ironically, the psychedelich approach of Black Masses is it's strongest characteristic (its untightness maybe).
Would you say then (or anyone here in the forum/site), that Witcult Today is your favourite Electric Wizard album? (I've already read somewhere here that you don't dig Dopethrone that much...)

Great album, although nothing different compared to their previous releases. The title track and 'The Nightchild' are superb.

I think the production is ruining this album
