It's a very good album, I'm surprised it didn't sell more. The bonus DVD is kind of cool too, as long as you don't mind reading subtitles.

Now playing: Watain - "I Am The Earth"

Oz -- It's good. Very Slayer-ish, but with better vocals (in my opinion, anyway).

I'm a sucker for bonus DVDs lol. I loved "Enemy Of God" so I have high expectations of this one.

That's not how a lot of people feel with bands they like, sadly. "OH MY GOD MY FRIEND KNOWS ABOUT THEM... NOW I CAN'T LIKE THEM ANYMORE. BOOOO!"
