Okay, I've got both Mithras albums, and each has had a couple of listens (but will receive many more), but hear are my initial thoughts:
THeir intros and ambient tracks are well executed. I like intros and outros and "intermission" tracks, but they tend to drag with Mithras.
The drummer is quite good, but yeah, he likes Morbid Angel.
All in all, the band writes good death metal, and I like both albums because of that. Is this the death metal band of the 00's? Possibly, but highly doubtful, it all depends on their next album.
Did Worlds Beyond the Veil live up to the hype in my eyes (and ears)? Not really. Good yes, but unless further listens reveal something extraordinary, I don't see myself listening to these guys often.
Mithras also remind me of Zyklon.
