Yeeeeooo mayne. I remember on my very first listen I was already declaring this to be in the top 10 without a doubt. It’s so incredibly amazing. It’s very much like the death metal equivalent to Blut Aus Nord.

I remember going numb when I heard the last two minutes of that track. Fucking brilliant.

Ulcerate might be the band that takes the crown for me Meshuggah once had. Meshuggah was a band that, try as I might, I simply could not get, but then one day it all clicked together and I got it. Listening to this CD, I get the definite feeling that once it all locks together for me-it was the last two minutes of “Cold Becoming” where I sensed that possibility-I’m going to love the hell out of them. Right now I’m just absorbing their music and waiting for the click to hit me.

neither this or obscura have riffs, but they take totally different avenues to get there.

Loved Everything Is Fire. The samples I’ve heard are similar enough to make me wonder if this one’s different enough to justify a purchase. This or the new Obscura?

This is a great album, and one that requires a lot of listens to fully appreciate.

This is one of the best death metal album’s in years. Brutal, intelligent and unique. Definitely on my 2011 year’s best list, along with Mitochondrion.
