5.0 out of 5 stars hypnotic, July 1, 2003

i bought Thelema on a whim in a record store in Santa Barbara, as I had heard my friend's MCD tribute band play once, although i didn't pay much attention to the show at the time. I put the 10" vinal on in my dorm room... This is an amazing record, i rank it amongst Radiohead's Kid A and Devo's Freedom of Choice. The most original sound of the late 90's and early 2000's.

Once again the Devils have outdone themselves. This EP literally kicks in the doors, climbs in the windows and mesmerizes the listener with wonderful dark howling and organ sounds for whisky guzzling demons, wandering alone in the night. The Devils are saving your rock and roll soul. Hop on board, leave the road, follow the path, it's midnight at the drowning pond and I'm glad, glad you're here for the midnight service...

This is one of the best, IF NOT THE BEST, rock groups in the last fifteen years. I never got to see them live in person but have seen numerous videos and regret not seeing them every time I listen to any of their albums or dead low tides albums. Buy any of Murder City Devils albums and you have purchased one of the most under rated rock bands of all time. I only wish that they hadn't of called it quits. I really feel that they were only scratching the surface of their potential.
