When being alive becomes the greatest sorrow. This is the abyss, the point of no return.

As cringe as a lot of the mythology and marketing around this album is, this is a really fucking good LP.

Classic. I'd say it is good as for entry level DSBM. At least in my situation I began DSBM from this. Thanks, Silencer, for new music and good memories.

I wish I had a more original opinion to offer of this record, but I'm sorry I don't: musically it's very, very good, but the super high pitched shrieking (as on the opening track) is just ridiculous, and coupled with the preposterous pics of Nattramn with his pig hooves (which is clearly holding with his hands under those bandages) and the fake bloody pants and bandages on his face, as well as Leere trying to look disaffected in his less overtly melodramatic pic, it comes across in the same way as a teenaged virgin writing dark, angry high school poetry about how there's no such thing as love, only pain. When Nattramn's vocals are a bit less Gollum-y, they mostly blend in alright and at least do not detract from the wonderful arrangements of the music, but too often they just grab me and shake me and distract me from the instrumentation. Uninitiated music fans who talk about Varg's vocals putting them off Burzum should be made to listen to this so they can know how good Varg really is.

I've not been, honestly. But anyway, I was looking at your profile and saw the link to your artwork. Cool stuff! You have a real talent for drawing. And being a fan of Horror and things of that nature, some of the ones I looked at are right up my alley. Keep up the good work.

I don't think you can really judge this album in terms of good or bad - it goes beyond that. At the end, I'd say it all boils down to what this album does for you. I'm mostly into the first three songs, the title track especially. Hearing a man scream "cut me" like that just awakens something deep inside of me. But this record is different for everyone, I can see why some people don't really like it all that much.

the other awesome thing about this album was it's originality. it's hard finding similar or shit as awesome, because so many people just copy the expressions.

Brilliant album. The vocals were a turn-off at first, now it has become what actually draws me to this album. Unique atmosphere.

Not in every depressive black metal you can feel this amount of sadness... how he's actually hating himself... hands down.

The vocals turned me off when I first heard off, but in the context of the album, instead of a single song, it really claws it's little demented way into you - just unparelled in its darkness at times, genuinly unnerving on songs like 'Taklamakan'.
