3.5 great | Alabaster Jones | November 6th 15 | Here we see the establishment of a sound both typical and atypical of black metal that can only be described as "Krallice". You know what that means, undoubtedly: hyper-technical tremolos, relentless drumming, sparse vocals, and long songs. It's a formula that they've since made adjustments to, but as it stood in 2008, it was as good an idea as any they've had as a band. Alas, some of the songs here, namely closer "Forgiveness In Rot", seemingly meander along, with not much new being implemented into the song for what seems like minutes at a time. On the other hand, tracks like "Molec Codices" and "Timehusk" progress very well and no single section really overstays its welcome. As a whole, the record is good, yet still a bit unrefined. It's good to know that in the future, Krallice would build off of this release and manage to tighten up their songwriting while doing so.

0.0 | bastard | October 10th 09 | raspooptin needs more semen on his poop deck. As for this album, it somehow managed to appeal to both hipsters at pitchfork and metalheads at sputnik, that already counts for something, not to mention the good music that is on this disk. Cold Calculated Black Metal that never lets go until the end? Hell yes! A Black Metal album that manages to hold my attention until it closes? I've Been Waiting! This album rules.

3.5 great | wolfmason | October 15th 09 | Good review, though I think a 3.5 is more appropriate, and the following statement should be changed:
"...to deny Mick Barr’s guitar virtuosity..." should be "...to deny Mick Barr’s guitar virtuosity and Colin Marston's guitar/bass/wierd-half-guitar-half-bass-thingy virtuosity..."
