One year after their unpolished debut, the most aggressive Black Metal band in Sweden finally walks through darkened soil, still their sound isn't as brutal and crushing as their following albums, and that's what makes this album an instant classic, here you'll hear Marduk in their most balanced stage.

"Those Of The Unlight" is a masterpiece in Melodic Black Metal, while the band finally reaches their Black Metal power successfuly, the music keeps touching the melodic area, so it's not a bloody and raw album, instead you'll get darkened melodious metal, this is where Marduk truly started slashing and killing with speedy execution and blasting structures but with a mild scheme and songwriting.

This second Full-Length is a shiny little jewel that will suit perfectly in your collection, the Re-issued material I am holding right now has live bonus tracks and a very cool layout, it's just a matter of logics, if you're a fan of the band you need to have this album in your roster as it is one of their most amazing efforts ever released.

We all know how their music goes, this is a weird mix between "World Funeral" and "Plague Angel" with a raspy voice. All in all let's be honest, it's Marduk! The band itself is already a metal classic. Don't be scared by the "Melodic" label, believe me, this album World pick Dimmu Borgir's ass any day.
