" Normally intros on metal albums are quite superficial, but Septic Flesh show that it is also possible to produce quite a bombastic one. The first real song Unbeliever is a logical suite to the intro. Bombastic monumental soundtrack-like tunes get combined with very brutal death metal riffs. This sounds very unusual, but also interesting. Especially the use of a mixed male and female choir gives nearly each song the certain touch that goes below the skin. It's great how Septic Flesh are able to combine brutality with melodies, and this all enriched with opera and symphonic parts"

" As Septic Flesh were already formed back in 1990, they may be called a Greek institution, but they are still able to play innovative metal after more than 13 years of band existence. The album also takes advantage of a huge sound. It was recorded in the Swedish Fredman Studio "

We all thought this would be their swansong...until reforming and releasing "Communion"in 2008 - another classic !

This must be heard by all fans of dark music !

The Power of the Dark!..........Get It!
