5.0 out of 5 stars BRUTAL BLACK/DEATH/GRIND/WAR METAL FROM CANADA!!!!, September 12, 2001

This review is from: Gods of War / Blood Upon the Altar (Audio CD)

Man, this is the classical of the most brutal music you have ever heard... Totally satanic masterpiece from North America, having influenced others as BEHERIT and BESTIAL WARLUST...
Absolutely recommended to fans of black/death/grindcore. The production here is great (originally produced in 1992, this is a reissue by OSMOSE with an EP as a bonus), great sound and especially sinister vokills (by Mr. BLACKWINDS), infernal drumming and brutal riffs!!! Essential, believe me!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Foundational Esoteric Black Metal, December 31, 2005

This review is from: Gods of War / Blood Upon the Altar (Audio CD)

Musical regressivism at it's finest. Along with bands like Von and Profanatica, Blasphemy helped move black metal away from rock-based metal and further towards twisted avant-noise. This album embraces primitivity and abrasion almost for it's own sake and comes off simultaneously horrifying and ridiculous, often in the same moment. The few who can appreciate outsider black metal in the vein of Beherit, Krieg, Havohej and Bestial Summoning will enjoy this.
