Is it just me or Amy borrows A LOT from Saber Dance in its opening gallop? I wonder if Aram Khachaturian was credited.
Nevertheless, one solid album.

I like every single album they made except VITRIOL...
This one is almost on par with Tara. Great come back after 8 long years.

Upon further multiple listens I hear a bit of Sigh in here as well from Hangman's Hymn, minus all of Wagnerian symphonics

This album is awesome. One of the best comebacks ever, and surprisingly so. It's a shame Proscriptor held back on the drums a little but still great album.

This album is great. I didn't know what to expect, but I'm pleasantly surprised with how good it is. Tons of killing tracks, and chock full of awesome guitar solos. I can't wait to see these guys at the Maryland Deathfest! :dio:

Was severely disappointed with this at first, but it's growing on me :D
