I have just awoken,
And trembling chills is all I feel
Truth has yet been spoken,
Will I ever know what’s real?
The mind… the infinite,
Brings forth chaos so imminent
Alone with only thought,
My actions oppose all I’ve been taught
The cold… isolation
My cold… imagination
Self actualization,
I’ll forever ask just who am I?
Self obliteration,
I am nothing but a lie
Mistakes, eternal scars,
A past that haunts me to the stars
Accept and you’ll ascend
Forgive me til my ultimate end
The cold… isolation
My cold… imagination

Pretty much the best Black/Speed Metal I've listened to since I learned about Evil Invaders and Vulture. Everything you'd love to be reminded of about this musical era is there. The influences are what you'd expect too: Motörhead, Venom, Bathory, early Slayer, Celtic Frost; aggressive vocals, tortured guitar solos, pounding drums; everything is fast, clear and still a little grimy, but without reverb cranked up to the max. Amazing band, amazing album. Odiumediae

Late 90's BM worship, but it's also a lil more than that. This album takes the best elements from the scene it's inspired by and mostly avoids the worst of it; the song-writing is well-written, it's performed with passion and fun, and the production is raw but isn't lo-fi. (i.e. it doesn't obfuscate and/or suckass).
Tl;dr It's safe but high quality BM. Recommended. Rabbit

Please, if you love this, go listen to the 2002 December Wolves album "Blasterpiece Theater" - this is less crazy than that, but a spiritual (no pun intended) successor!!! BookendS
