If you mixed ISIS (the band), Kylesa and Coffinworm, I do believe you'd get something very similar to this album. Digging it.

That sounds very intriguing.

Good description. I don't think I'd give it a 9 but I'm definitely enjoying it and it does overall seem to be better than their last one.

I am the Magician and the Exorcist. I am the axle of the wheel, and the cube in the circle. “Come unto me” is a foolish word: for it is I that go.

This is just underwhelming and utterly average.

Not as great as Pervertor but to me this is much more interesting than Death Mask and a genuinely great album.

I came in with 0 expectations and left completely disappointed. Not terrible by any means but it just failed to grab my attention in any way. Probably felt good to perform for the band members though. Lots of anger put into this.

I actually prefer Death Mask over this one. Not bad at all but only a few great tracks here for me. Something about Death Mask hits different. Still, this band scratches an itch.
