Now that the bashing is over, it's time to explain why this album was not, in fact, entirely bad. After being complimented a lot on attempting (and succeeding) at making a doomish-type track on the previous album, Belphegor take that into this new album and perfect the sound, making the very grim sounding "Angel of Retribution". Having amazing transitions of slow heavy sounds of Doom with faster more Black Metal cliché blast-beat-fury, tracks like "Hells Ambassador" and "Bluhtsturm Erotica" create a Black Metallers dream (or nightmare...whichever you prefer). Musicianship/vocalist wise this album has stepped up quite a bit more. The drumming/production of the drumming has become far more dynamic and unique sounding with this album and the growls have reached a new levels of viciousness (most notably in the intro to the track "Pest Teufel Apokalypse").
This is definitely a must have for any die-hard Belphegor fan such as myself, but if you're new to discover Belphegor, I highly suggest purchasing "Lucifer Incestus" or "Goatreich-Fleshcult" before this album.

An 8 seems remarkably high given the content of the review.
