Oh, Dimmu Borgir. This is their first english language album, and it seems to be just words relating to Satanism strung together. While delivered with much less bombast then their later work, the dirge-y, melancholic approach provides a nice evil atmosphere, and makes the songs pretty cool.
3.5/5 - Very good, especially for black metal, which is definitely not my favorite genre of metal. Their later works are good in a different way, but this one certainly gets the miasma of evil down pretty damn well.
