This cd is the work of true genious. Everything about it is great. The vocals are phenomenal. The main vocalist produces an amazing low gutteral sound that is accompanied by background opera singers. The bass and drums work together to make a great booming sound. The orchestral and accoustic parts in this cd are truly breathtaking. I recommend this cd to anyone who is fond of music. It is a must have for metalheads like myself.

This is the album that Dimmu Borgir wish they had put out with their Death Cult Armageddon. Dimmu is up there in my top ten favorite bands of all time, and until now, they were the kings of Symphonic Metal. After all, they are the progenitors of the Symphonic Black Metal sound, and I thought that the dark beauty that was Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia (their magnum opus) could not be beat. Turns out I was wrong. Septic Flesh has put out one h3ll of an intense album that is a masterful blend of many metal genres; black, death, goth, doom, a wee bit o industrial, and of course, the symphonic element that ties it all together. The production is gorgeously done, and the overall feeling is seriously massive. If you like extreme metal that challenges the "established boundaries", get this album!!!

Like the stuttering Hugh Grant in a cliched Romantic comedy coming to an end, I Am at a loss for words. I know what 2 say, but simply CAN'T!!!
Other than this. Septic Flesh has done what so many thought couldn't be done: Perfected a genre that so many thought wouldn't be perfected with the 'Demise' of Emperor.
These Greek Masters will surely give D. Gorgir, and Cradle Of Filth a run for their money.
Originality, suspense, a creative energy. Love for the fans and a genius lyrics make this album a priority if Ur new 2 the genre or already a seasoned fan. If I get a management gig with these guys, America;s radios' will be playing "Sumerian Daemons". This album will have U spellbound and humming for years 2 come.

The composition and dynamics of the album are consistent. I enjoy the album immensely, even more so than Communion, if only for the length of the album. The atmosphere created by both albums is significant and the music is rife with chunk, double-kicks, and solid vocal distortions, but the simple fact is that Sumerian Daemons has more of it. Do want.

So this album was supposed to be sooo good and it was nearly impossible to find. After searching for it for 6 months I finally got my hands on it and was severly disappointed. This album was not good!
