Impressed
My first foray into Ex Deo and I'm very impressed on the passion they've introduced into the music - maybe it's the history background in me? Lyrics are great and proud, the music is solid melodic death metal but enhanced by keys provided by the dude from Carach Angren.
Artwork and packaging is also top notch.
Check out video for 'The Roman', like that and you'll like this album.

Good shift
Firstly, the LP sounds amazing but it doesn't come with a download card which I dislike.
Anyway, Bolzer have progressed and grown nicely from their EPs whilst still maintaining thier initial spirit and integrity. The major changes are some clean vocals which remind of early Enslaved, and some slower parts. Harsh vocals and brutality still dominate and the atmosphere is still epic.

Quite impressive
Honestly wasn't expecting much but I was really impressed with how the new Satyricon mixed with the Orchestra. The whole concept was well planned and executed. Mother North is epic... which brings me to my only gripe - it's the only track from thier first three albums.
Still the new style sounds ace.

Great quality
I've always wanted this as a poster ever since a mate had it 25 years ago, so was happy to see it as a flag. Quality and size is great, perfect for the man cave - missus won't let me put it up in the bedroom 😣

Best of 2016
I love this album and it's my favourite release from 2016. I'm a big fan of doom but prefer black metal. This release is a little softer than my preferred doom but it's so perfect and so sad. The atmosphere and songwriting is perfect. The closer with Nick Holmes is amazing and needs listening to. Aleah's vocals are so sweet and emotive, she will be missed. BUY.

Great surprise
This release came out of the blue, and it was a great surprise. I have the vinyl version and love it. Great set list, but I have one issue and that is I would like the guitars a little louder. If you like Primordial than this is a necessity.

Their best
Got this album years ago when it first came out and it is something I've always been able to go back to. Moonspell really set the bar high and to this day it's my favourite Moonspell album.
The green vinyl looks and sounds great and the artwork/layout is great too. So glad I got a chance to own on vinyl.
