Condition of the disc is not that great. Symphonic Black Metal from Malta. What to say...b rilliant! This is one of those albums which should be enjoyed to the least significant note. Not an album that will be enjoyed on the first hearing... Don`t get me wrong, this is because it is so complex ( especially the work on the synth... orgasmatic) that one should hear it several times to get the utmost out of it. This work of art is one that can be enjoyed by all lovers of the genere... this is because it contains brutal highly technical tracks like "the ebon river princess" and highly melodic tracks such as the outstanding "promises". Again, brilliant... nice work from Martyrium... in my opinion, this band will go far.
