Press Reviews “...there is pure brilliance here, and some of the humour is SPECTACULAR... It’s mostly heavy, sometimes brutal, but always flowing.”-Lot FP“Fast, furious and sledgehammer heavy... Although the album is intended to be an affectionate black metal piss-take, it’s actually quite brilliant.”-Kerrang!, Jason Arnopp“Choir harmonies stacked so high it reminds me of that scene at the end of Airplane! Where the two heroes are kissing and the lovey-dovey music cracks and shrieks as they escalate into impossible ranges, or a joke in a Douglas Adams book I can’t quite paraphrase, death metal roars so big and dopey you just have to chuckle, and more tips of the hat to Sabbath, Maiden, Priest and more than you can possibly count. So, for anyone into brutal noise, the deathiest of death, with a sense of humour, ya gotta get this.”-Lollipop Magazine, Scott Hefflon
