Album of the month

Normally this style belongs to Scandinavians bands. This time it is an American band who gives a black metal lesson. And what a lesson my friends. The ultimate black album since Dimmu Borgir Spiritual Black Dimension ? Hell yes and what a sound, what a production. Simply amazing ! Ah those Americans, always here when you don't expect them. Sending Emperor, Cradle Of Filth or Dimmu Borgir back to school. What an aggression, what a "disturbing" black metal !!!
Nice double voices, intelligent breaks, bombastic drums, guitars at the speed of light and vocals coming from the deepest part of the North. Music is "satanic" and in the same time so magic! You won't believe the females voices on the back.
Those guys have reinvented the style, which seems by the way to be in a dead end street.

A jewel, a must for all black metal fans! Forget all you have heard before. Here comes the pain, the new deflagration out of the States. Its name ? S A N C T U S !!!
