4.0 out of 5 stars New Dissection, or is it?, September 27, 2005

I have gone back and forth, seriously, with this new tune from the masters of "anti-cosmic metal of death", and I think its finally starting to settle on me. Despite the complete lact of a blastbeat, addition of female (en-)chanting vocals, this song is still very rockin. Shoot, nevermind, this single shreds. Maha Kali guitar and vocals were recorded while still behind bars, and are very reminiscent of Heartwork era Carcass. Lyrics are dark and worshipful. Cover art is sweet as usual, especially if you know the story of Maha Kali. Beautifully illustrated by Necrolord. Also includes rerecorded version of Unhallowed which I think is not so much cleaner and shinnier, but merely sharper, more cutting.

I though the songs sounded pretty good, I just wish they had a full length cd rather than basically a two song sampler, this is comperable to their old stuff, I don't know why everyone has said it sucks, probabaly thier taste in music changed,not the band

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't like it? It's because you don't know., October 1, 2007

Firstly, I have to say that the most disappointing thing about the Metal scene is the fans. Fans are always so fickle and closed minded. Here's a revelation for you: Bands don't--and if they want to stay good--write music for their fans.

Music has to come from a magical place within you. Every time a band writes something for their fans--it sounds like crap. Every time a band writes something for themselves--that's when true creativity comes to play.

If you want classic gothenberg death metal and classic norwegian death metal, go write it yourself.

If you wanted something new from Jon, you have found it. As a previous reviewer stated, it's reminiscent of Heartwork-era Carcass, only better. It follows some occult formulas of writing. Jon's work here was to create a work that would be a capstone and a final piece of art for the MLO and his religion. He succeeded, and although I believe his beliefs were stupid in the respect that he killed out of hate and killed himself as well, this single and the album its apart of deserve a well-cut place in the history of metal.
