Listened to it a couple of times today. Atackla, Mladek, and Batu are so dammed awesome. Praise be man doens't sound that different instrumentally, but the addition of vocals is a surprising change for them. Not a band track on here though.

It's on one song, and they're all backwards and loaded with effects, so not like a traditional singing arrangement or anything. It's cool. Doesn't sound out of place.

Great album overal. Heavier than "Geneva".

I am anxious to hear this. 'Enter' was a great record. They have all been good so far, actually...

Theres like one song where I feel that they just added in stuff to make the song longer. It doesn't flow like their others.

I dig the album though, they are taking things in a slightly different direction, little bit heavier than geneva. Perfectly fine with me.
