Hmm I don't know what to say . I personally loved the trippy leads and all the riffs throughout the album. Demise is a little more traditional but still very good.Funnily enough it was "Instinct: Decay", I'm yet to listen to "Demise". I was just expecting a lot more.
The near east puts out some good bands with eastern melodies in their black metal, like Melechesh from Israel. Are there other good bands from around there?
Hey now keep your thrash out of the black metal thread!
edit: Onslaught does pwn
hows Ashen Light?
