I picked this up a while back because of reading the review of an earlier disc by said band in LARM! and basically because I needed my metal fix. What we have here is a Norwegian black metal band that sound very much like Satyricon to me in terms of music. The vocals are different from Satyr's, actually better I would say. Keys are used but they are performed in a tasteful manner and there are all sorts of good riffs present. I particularly liked the title track (it is a mighty rare occasion that I can actually stand female vocals in black metal, this was one). Some thought was put into this release and it is heavy in a Norse warrior sort of way. It conjures up images of their might. Twin Obscenity are pretty cool and very underrated I would say. 9 songs 45:53 m:s
