CeetjeBeetje Absolute must-listen for any fans of Melodic/Technical Death-metal!
The deep growls add to the intimidating and powerful sound of this album. It's awesome! Favorite track: Relent.

Matthew Rukgaber What I find interesting about this album is that while there is an unrelenting wall of sound made by blastbeats and discordant BM riffs, on several of the songs there is a melody that seems to have been deconstructed and scattered through the song..like moments of lucidity and peace in a nightmare. While I generally do not dig things that are "atmospheric" (read:dull) you might call this atmospheric death metal that is still quite technical and constantly surprising. Favorite track: Relent.

metalmario Love the oppressive and reflective atmosphere. Were is my favorite, wish it were longer. Favorite track: Were.
