Very Good Atmospheric Black Metal

"When I first heard Christcrusher, I was not really all that Impressed. My first reaction was this sounds like Dimmu, Graveworm and every other Atmospheric Black Metal Group out right now. After listening to the album a little deeper, my first Impression was wrong. This album is very melodic, serene and has it's own Identity. The track Christcrusher is extremely brutal and almost doesn't fit the rest of the album, but I'm not complaining. This release offers a lot to the genre, it's well played and the production is perfect. The vocals are very evil sounding, the clean vocals don't sound like Progressive Metal and the acoustic guitars and keyboards are blended perfectly. This doesn't sound nearly as assessable as newer Dimmu releases but still has that Epic feel to it. Add this to your collection and you will go back to it time and time again. A great addition to a your Black Metal Collection!"

"This album puts you in a mood that you must experience for yourself. Its filled with sorrowful keyboards, fast forward going gutairs and to be heard only at winter."

Moody and aggressive masterpiece.

"Dark, emotional, melodic underground metal that's addictive and catchy. I believe they may not be active anymore (correct me if I'm wrong). A gem from the late 90s, before black metal became a fun fashion statement!"
