thanks for the upload

this is my first time listening thru the album & I have to say it's not bad if you forget hellhammer, vortex & mustis were fired before it was made. Just treat it like Dimmu before those guys joined the band. I think I will pick this up on vinyl if it is repressed at a reasonable price i think.

Sadly a lot of die hard Black Metal fans feel that they have sold out, what they don't understand every band goes through a major change through out their career, This is how they keep being creative, some people don't understand that. Even our band we started in L.A. has been acused of being fake, some people take Black metal seriously.

Много велики Съдове за почитна

Isnt there a song performed by Dimmu Borgir that also has a connection to Pearl Jam? I'm trying to google it but cant find anything, but I know there exists one, but cant freakin remember it.

Abrahadadra e Eonion são apenas bons álbuns, agora vá ver a banda tocar esses álbuns live sem orquestra, é um lixo. Álbum bom é aquele que é bom em estúdio e também ao vivo.
