"October draws near under the sign of a Bethlehem invasion. On the 10th of October, The German legend returns with their first full-length album in ten years, Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia, a comprehensive vinyl box named Hau ab that is available with either classic black vinyl or Picture Discs (both with 10 LPs containing almost the band's complete works, a 60-pages book and posters), a reissue of their classic debut album Dark Metal with an exclusive DVD featuring a concert performance from 1994, and last but not least a new merchandise design as well."

"Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia - a title that symptomizes what Bethlehem is: nonconformist, recalcitrant, aloof and obscure. Fans had to wait a long time for a new album from the group that coined the term Dark Metal with the same-titled album and whose Dictius Te Necare and S.U.i.Z.i.D. defined the Suicidal/Depressive Black Metal genre. Four years have passed since Stönkfitzchen, and their last album Mein Weg dates back even a full decade. Finally though, Bethlehem return with their sixth studio record and are once again nothing but themselves, shrewdly eccentric both musically and lyrically. Following the direction of their recent releases, they also hark back to their very beginnings with songs like "Spontaner Freitod", but do not shy away from balladic moments and boldly incorporate Industrial-elements. Their typical lyrics, written in Jürgen Bartsch's cryptic style, are still one of the band's trademarks and again intoned by Guido Meyer de Voltaire, the singer on both Schatten aus der Alexander Welt and Mein Weg. Thus, we can attest to Bethlehem with some satisfaction: Things will stay the same but different again!"

"Nazi Zombies mit Tourette-Syndrom", though.

Their best, hands down.
