This album was something that I had been looking forward to listening to for a long time, so when I finally got the chance to do so, I was pretty amazed. The songs on this record were full of tempo changes, long buildups and plenty of melodic riffing that i felt were nothing but awesome. They were brutal yet melodic. The only complaint that I had was the length of the album and the songs. I felt that they were too long but still interesting. To put this all in a nutshell, this , i feel, is a mix between the european and american styles of death metal. Buy this and be amazed.
