3.5 greatGene Gol-Jonsson CONTRIBUTOR | February 26th 21

I'm not sure what distinguishes this band as an "avant-garde" or "experimental" act. Perhaps listening to their other efforts might reveal what that's all about, because coming off of 'The Black Flux' alone, it sounds mostly like standard old-school prog-metal record that has some minor death metal influences. With that said, it is very quality. The riffs are solid and the sound is dark like heck.

2.0 poorFLRTE | June 6th 11

I have no problem with disonant melodies but here I don't feel anything behind it, any intensity nor sincerity. It was a big disapointment to me. A very dull album.

3.5 greatIonicSphere39 | January 10th 10

This album is refreshing in so many ways. The angular guitar work, the occultic vocals, the downtrodden drum movements, that get eerily dancy in certain parts, and brutal in others. The reason I gave this a 5 is because, one would be hard pressed to find something this original and captivating, among the shit being dished out now-a-days. Get this album and visit the dark parts of your psyche.
