This is the second CD from Norway's Mactatus. They have come into their own sound now providing excellent black metal with a slower guitar riffs, pounding drums and a better sound this time around... we also have keys here and there... a good solid release.

cheers

First of all let me tell you that Tracks 5, 6, 7, and 8 are what makes "The Complex Bewitchment" great. If you love "Enthroned Darkness Triumphant" period Dimmu Borgir part of this would greatly appeal to you. In my opinion it doesn't sound like Dimmu, althrough you will hear comparisons, but there are similar techniques used. The vocals are evil and suit the music very well. Starting with songs, like "Excellence" and forward this CD is great. The first four tracks are just not as memorable, but four great songs that you play over and over again is worthy of 5 STARS in my book. I think this is better than their last effort, "Suicide," which I also have. This is black metal that takes you on a journey. I know the cover art looks a bit ridiculous, but it's the music the counts. If you like this band, check out Dark Fortress "Stab Wounds," it similar to this but even more evil. Check both of these out.
