| Sound interesting with violin, flutes adding to the music. Im interested in these instruments but just witnessed not so many bands using it in black metal. |

"During the song "Female" they do not sound melancholic at all, but instead evoke a very evil and malicious atmosphere"
good, women are evil and malicious after all! 
but i think this BM might be interesting for me as well, i'll try to get my hands on it  |

I read that this was limited to 100 copies.... FUCK
This music is exactly what I was waiting for so much time... Metal that it's actually elegant.
Awesome music, really glad to hear it. |

Oooohhh man, thanks a lot. 12.... dollars? euros? what?
How much will the freight btw?
And now that I'm hearing it... it's kinda sick at times... the vocals are crazy. They remains me a little [very little] of Shining mixed with Lifelover... but maybe I'm just deaf. |

Great album, the song titles are a bit pretentious though But so is the music and I love it, especially the first song. This definitely belongs to my favourites from 2008.
I would praise it even more but don't know how, I'm really shitty in describing music. |

I heard some Shining too, but mostly Deinonychus/Bethlehem. |

Aaaah, yeah... Bethlehem.. that was the name I was searching for. But somehow I could only think about Shining |

This is a great album, listened to it several times in the last few months.
You can definitely see why this band are getting (deserved) attention. |
|
|
|
| Sounds interesting. The cover at first looks like a mug of beer or something of that nature |
|

Great review man! Looks like you definitely got people checking out the album! I've spun that thing so many times now, I couldn't even count the times any more. Another album that it's easier to pick the least good song than the best song (that song being 'Male').
I have a different cover on my album though, was this the first release or what? |

| Great album, one of my favorites. I'd recommend it to anyone who likes music on the more obscure side. |
|
|
|
| But... 9/10 in production? I'm listening to it right now.. and it's too high rate, I think |

This is the version on the re-relase. You probably have the re-release by Trancendal Creations (or the other way around). |

If I were a prog reviewer, i would rate production according to crystal clearness. But I'm not, I review Black metal and other sick stuff and so a dirtier, rawer production usually gets high ratings from me (if it matches the music/atmosphere).
I found this production very fitting and great sounding, and also a lot better than what I'm used to. So on one side, yes I do think this production is worth a 9, but on the other side, i might not be used to better (and neither is the black metal audience). |

| Well, I agree. Production is very good on this album. Black Metal bands very often try to create some kind of an atmosphere. So I do think they succeeded. As far as the songwriting, I really liked the first track. It was the one that really caught my attention (after the first listen). And it also reminded me of Drudkh a little. I think that originality is bit overrated though. However, I am not ready to grade this album yet. I also think that the title is weird unless there is some concept behind it (I haven't read the lyrics). |

|
| Very intriguing album. A great discovery for sure. |
|
|

Im listening to "Female" on their website and for some reason it sounds like Devil Doll went Black Metal....
Very interesting band, Ill try to get a hold of the entire album |

| Can somebody tell me why the cover of the album has changed when it's viewed in the band's discography? |

Yeah, I got the new cover art from the label (the old one wasn't it apparently). Changed it on the albums page and thought it would also change here, but apparently it didn't. So I changed it manually. You should see the new one now, if not, alt+ f5 (cache refresh). |

Jajaja... Thanks.. Now I know that I'm not insane!
I thought the same thing. It's not the same sound and genre at all. But the atmospheres "a la 19th century" are similar. |

|
| This is such an amazing album. One of the best ones to come out of 08. |

Fans of Deinonychus, Bethlehem and the Peaceville Death/Doom trio will probably like this
yes Im absolutely agree with you, and I have to say that this is a very nice album. good work for their first album and I think they cant release somthin like this again. its very unique. their first track is unbelievalby nice with a arabic theme. I can hear an instrument which is like "Daf", I dont know what you call it. its very unique and it reminds me near by south of Iran's folk music. its like a circle but I dont know if its the exact instrument over here or not.
but I have to say that the artwork sux for sure. 0 for it. |

|
| I always find myself listening to the second half of God. That riffing combined with the vocals is just killer. This band needs more recognition (although that is perhaps their fault...) |
|
|
|
| The songs are pretty interesting until the "vocalist" comes in. I mean, I've heard some interesting black metal "singing" before... but man, this guys cracking, pre-pubescent vocals take cheesy to a whole new level. Neat music, though. |

| Well your review motivated me get this album ASAP |
