I think this a great disc. All the hype is justified. Snorre Ruch is the man (he will never live down a certain Terrorizer quote though. Stuff to cringe about indeed.). Old fashioned black metal riffage with an industrial tinge, quite atmospheric and never boring. Most of it is slower paced with an excellent sound quality. Aldrahn, Satyr and Snorre take turns at crooning. Good to hear menace still in music. It should make a ton of "best of" lists this year.
