I want that new album, can't wait to hear it! Its like almost 4 years ago they released anything new now.. And I sure do hope there is no new vocalist, I love Simon's grunting!

Can't fucking wait! Both their first two albums have such a dark and armageddon-esque doomsday atmosphere to them it's incredible.

Leaked. Well it is definitely better than the last one, but not as good as debut. So far I am enjoying it a lot.

I really like this album. Nice riffs and that erie feeling that can be felt when listening to Hypocricy. They have their own sound/style.

Hmm I have mixed feelings. Nothing feels memorable yet and it didn't click immediately on the first listen like with their previous two albums. I will listen to it a bit longer and then rate it. But it's somehow stale for now.

This is actually a really good surprise. Loved their debut but they kinda bored me on "The Cancer Empire" but theyve really grown quite a lot from then to this new release. The vocals for one seem more menacing and more mature, and the music still has those little flourishes of Hypocrisy but not in a rip-off kinda way so I love that. Also get a bit of a Dark Fortress vibe in some of the songs so its a nice mesh of melodic death/black in this release - very impressive.

It's definitely better than 'TCE' and not for away from being as good as their debut.

I tried to like it as much as the previous two albums but I can't. It hurts me to state this, but this album is bland, dull and boring. Terribly disappointed.

This album is extremely 'samey' and bores me beyond belief.

A bit better than the last one, but the "been there done that"-feeling is unshakable. "A Lullaby to those Still Alive" had a a seriously infective chorus though. Awesome song!

I don't really like melodeath lately (with a few exceptions) and Zonaria never really struck me with their music before so it came to me as a total surprise that I enjoyed this album. It contains harshness and melody in proportions that are just right for me. If only this album was more varied I'd give it a higher rating.

First time hearing this band. I thought this album was pretty good. Face My Justice is easily my favourite song.
