I grabbed a copy of this much anticipated release from The Chasm today, and I must say that even with my familarity with the band, I still wasn't prepared for just how good this record turned out to be. This is easily their best work yet, surpassing even Deathcult for Eternity. Daniel Corchado's mastery of his own artistic idiom is absolute. The creative language seen rough hewn on earlier albums here emerges fully develped, with a level of conceptual coherence and refined execution hitherto reached only by Burzum at the height of Varg's power. Death metal, rendered symphonically, with an unerring instinct for the epic, the dramatic and the ancient. The first true masterpiece of the millennium.
