first and foremost, this is Marduk alive and well, but different. its definitely the next step in evolution from Rom 5:12, but its just....different. its chock full of raging insanity, but the riff work on some songs is weird. for example track 2, "Funeral Dawn", is the same riff repeated for 6 minutes, and its not even really that heavy of a riff. it reminds me of "Imago Mortis" from Rom. the opening track is excellent, they are notorious for grabbing you with a killer opener. the album almost zones out for tracks 2, 3 and 4, but then comes BLASTING in with "Into Utter Madness" which is devastating, and the rest of the album follows suit until "As A Garment" which slows down again. my favorites are "Into Utter Madness", "Phosphorous Redeemer" and "Whorecrown", the latter being incredible. overall i really enjoyed this, its just different than what i expected. the shining element is Mortuus' vocals, that dude sounds like he is gurgling blood when he sings. Legion who? this gets an A in my book.

please tell me this is leaked.

i used to really like Legion, but the more i listen to his stuff after hearing what Mortuus can do, i'm not as interested. "Heaven Shall Burn" has some weak vocals.

The production on Rom 5:12 was amazing. I liked Wormwood when I listened to it once through but it didn't grab me, I gotta listen more.

it came out today so i'm sure its online.

Safe to say Arioch / Mortuus / Funeral Mist has made a HUGE impact on Marduk. Lots of parallels in terms of riffs and atmosphere between Wormwood and Maranatha. I loved Rom 5:12 and I like this one even more. A+

that's exactly what i said, but the more i think about it, its what needed to happen. Rom 5:12 should stand alone. instead of albums like Annihilation of the Wicked and Ithyphallic from Nile. Ithyphallic is just AotW pt. 2.

he is one of the best lyricists in the metal world. it sounds like his vocal cords are being torn apart.

Whorecrown is a great song. This album is awesome. Listening to it "properly" this evening.

Better then the last one but it grows on you and some of the production is different then of old and the last few good Marduk albums. For me a must own!

Marduk seems like they should be way more awesome than they are. I sorta nod my head like I'm agreeing with them non-commitally when I listen to it.

lol!

I'm really digging this album. So far, I liked Rom a bit more, but I haven't really given this one enough time to sink in yet either.
