| 4.0 excellent | svinariezas | June 7th 20 |
An interesting mix of styles on this one: symphonic keyboards (these sections sound like 'In The Nightside Eclipse' which was released the same year), medieval melodies, chants, some acoustic guitar passages, some raw dissonant riffs. But all of this somehow works. Music full of surprises. Samoth from Emperor does a great job on bass (really distinct) and guitars. Drumming is wild and great as always. Satyricon peaked with 'Nemesis Divina', but this one nevertheless is a good and original album.

Not my style, very primitive and atmospheric, although with some interesting time-changes and rhythmical idea. Better than the debut imo thanks to more variation, seberal clean sections and spoken vocal parts and more musical complexity.

Lite [symphonic] black metal with keys. At this point Satyricon were sort of doing a "slower Emperor with fewer keys" kind of thing. It's not bad, but it doesn't sound "big" enough to have the punch you feel it should have.

A fair disappointment after their more than promising debut Dark Medieval Times. While being oddly inconsistent - the songs themselves, too - the good parts keep this up.
