Rattenkönig shows some nice improvements, and although the album has less highlights than Majestas Leprosus, it has a better overall quality, thing that I guess makes it a better album.
Solid song structures, some highlights here and there, and a great song (The Ecstatic Spiral to Hell) make of this album good Black Metal, fans of Mütiilation will undoubtedly like and will probably prefer over Majestas Leprosus. People who have never found something special in Mütiilation will not find anything here that will make them change their mind.
70/100
isn't it a bit overrated ? by what you're writing I guess you think it's a good album but not great... by Metal Reviews standards, your 70 means "very good" so this should be around 60/65...
I don't want to be a pain in the arse but if everybody has its own rating system nobody will understand anything with the ratings here anymore...
I think that the description of the album fits with the quote I gave it, maybe to some people it gave another impression, but I think it's OK. 70 says to me: "If you like BM then get this album, you'll enjoy it, not love it, but you sure will enjoy it", a score in the 60's says to me: "Maybe you should look for something else..." and I definitely wanted to express the first, thing that I think I did.
