obviously this CD differs from the rest of the bands's albums (actually, each of Decapitated album represents band's different musical and technical vision of DM) but it doesn't mean that it’s worst than others. i found this album being quite impressive. it sounds less "large" then The Negation but not less brutal. what really impressed me was the technical approach those guys made on this CD. tempo changes as well as the whole musicianship (guitar and drums) sound just awesome – simply rollercoaster. the new voice (Covan) really matches the music style they chose. yes, there is some Meshuggah’s influence on this album but it’s executed in Decapitated way. again, i appreciate that Decapitated is not afraid to experiment with different DM style avenues. it doesn't make them repetitive (read: usual and boring) but actually quite original and always impressive...
