If you think Cold Lake is the worst thing Celtic Frost ever came up with, you haven't listened to this.

1.5 very poor"Tab" | January 30th 22

most of the album sounds like a third tier marilyn manson or korn, and album closer 'hip hop jugend' sounds like the worst rammstein song fathomable.

Actually, this is not that horrible. If you sit down and listen to this properly, you'll notice that this demo is indeed a prototype, the prototype of their final masterpiece, Monotheist and some Triptykon songs. You can hear many of the same lyrics and same melodies from the aforementioned examples - and from this aspect, I believe it's a fascinating experience having the opportunity to hear these early early versions of those songs. Plus, it's also very interesting to hear some of these rather unsuccesful experiments, because these were also part of their evolution. Not every experiment is a succesful one, and this release is not painful as most people said. (Not good, but not painful either.)

1.0 awfulI was living in constant fear of someone neg bombing all my reviews cause I know how many detest me | January 23rd 21

If the idea of hearing Tom G Warrior's take on industrial metal (with traces of other genres blended in) appeals to you, you would still be much better served listening to his project Apollyon Sun instead. Kind of bizarre that he discontinued that one and reformed Celtic Frost just to release something similar but nowhere near as consistent or interesting.

Cold Lake may be Celtic Frost's worst "regular" album, but this garbage is their worst release ever.

Holy fuck this is one of the worst, most misguided pieces of absolutely abhorrent music ever created.

Dafuk is that crap?! I had no idea this existed. I wish i still had no idea, this is beyond terrible. Probably tied with Lulu as worst album ever. Well at least, it was only a demo so i guess it wins on that count.
