I hadn't heard anything by this band since their mediocre demo "Wolftread" (which sounded exactly like early SATYRICON) around 1994. With this album (their second full-length), there's not even a question that the music style of DECEMBER WOLVES has gone from "Nordic"-worship black metal to retro t(h)rash. "Completely Dehumanized" is 100% comparable to shitty bands like INFERNO, NOCTURNAL BREED, newer SWORDMASTER, GUILLOTINE, and others alike. Avoid like the fucking plague...
