1.0 out of 5 stars the greatest black metal album IN RUINS! THIS IS CRAP!, February 19, 2004

This review is from: In Times Before the Light (Audio CD)

once again, Nagash (or lex icon as i say) destroyed one of my most all-time favorite release of this album.

i HAVE the original version and i love it....until then he screwed this remix (or reissued?) up. they need to get rid of that lady from COF, i don't like her. this album sounds so corny, it's not even funny. they removed the darkest parts of all the songs anr replaced it with gay BOUNCY BEAT keyboards.

if you want the original version, you better try hard, cuz i'm not sure if you can still find it. you'll most likely find this crap in stores. but get the original version. it's way better, believe me

1.0 out of 5 stars Does not compare to the original, April 5, 2006

This review is from: In Times Before the Light (Audio CD)

As we all know, this release of "In Times Before The Light" is a re-issued version of the original recording. The original version of this album is incredible. I am lucky enough to own a copy. The reason they re-issued the album is because they shared the same name as a band from Sweden. Beacuase of this they were forced to change their name to The Kovenant. After the name changed, unfortunately so did the bands sound. This not being a good change at all. If you do ever get to hear / own a copy of the original Black Metal version, listen to that rather than this. As another reviewer stated, the whole atmoshpere of the original recording has been lost. The album doesn't feel the same.

The samples are WRONG, they are from the 2002 "remix" album!(their worst album)This re-release includes the 1994 demo "from the storm of shadows" as bonus content. This is an essential album in your nineties Black metal collection!
