I thought the Blood Revolt tracks I sampled a few months ago were bad at first, but the album operates as a whole in a totally different, much better way. I just got it yesterday and have only managed to play it a few times, but it seems like the band really comes into their own, musically, during the second half of the album. The first half struck me as good, but some of the arrangements were lifted straight from Axis of Advance albums (like "Salvation at the Barrel of a Gun" resembling "Evanescent Judgment of the Last Era" quite a bit).
