A very fast and raw sound starts off the album along with a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Most of the music is also very heavily rooted in the second wave Norwegian tradition while the vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams and melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing.
Throughout the album you can also hear a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while clear singing can also be heard at times. Most of the tracks are also very long and epic in length along with one song also adding in a brief use of dark soundscapes, spoken words can also be heard on a few tracks.
When guitar solos and leads are finally utilized they are also done in a very melodic style as well as all of the musical instruments also having a very powerful sound to them and a later track also adds in a brief use of clean playing. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Satanism, Misanthropy and Darkness themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Deathcult and if you are a fan of old school, misanthropic and satanic black metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Dogs of War" "Eat Broken Glass" and "Imperium Satana". 8 out of 10.
