 ... conjunction with the tongue in cheek nature of the album. Singer Nattefrost's vocals are an energetic mix of rasping growls and yelps, and the bombastic songs are full of fast, catchy riffs and develop nicely despite their short runtimes, all of which hover around the four to five minute mark. 'Spill The Blood of The Lamb' is a particularly good track, rattling along at a breakneck pace before eventually flowering into a powerful melodic, mid-paced finale. Both the artwork and lyrics are characteristically blasphemous a...more

Carpathian Forest's most commercial album came along at the right time, when mainstream metal became entirely aware of bands like Dimmu Borgir and Emperor, bands that stretched black metal's credibility with their moves towards something a little easier to digest.
