"Anyone that is in anyway interested with black metal should get this cd. It has members from bands like Necrophagia, S.O.D, and Autopsy. If you like any of those bands then you know whats in store for you when you get this.P.S. On June 10th 2001, Ravenous are having a concert in New York."

"This is a cool cd featuring members from bands like Necrophagia, Autopsy, S.O.D. Sometimes the music is fast and ferocious while other times its fast as Hell. Recommended for fans of death and black metal. P.S. these guys are playing with Mayhem in N.Y on June 10th"

"As Melanie Safka whimpered, "What have they done to my song?" More important to me is to try to understand why time, money, and effort was expended so as to preserve this dreadful noise on the virtually indestructible CD media format. Thousands of years after books will have decayed, this CD will survive.What probably caused me to become so angry with this effort was the promise made by "Shrieks of the Mutilated," the opening cut; 49-seconds, however, goes by far too quickly when one calculates the cost-per-minute ratio. "Ageless Existence," the ninth cut, brings things back into focus; alas, the effort is too late to erase from memory the previous, flawed rants. The final cut, "Annointing the Worms," shows the same sparkle that appeared in the first cut; but someone decided the CD was finished, and so we're left hungry. The 2-1/2 good songs justifies a 1-1/2 star rating.The dynamics involved in the creative process can just as easily work *against* a project as toward it: this is what must have happened here. Well, at least you *were* warned that it would be wise to spend your hard earned cash on another CD. The effect of listening to this thing twice left me in such a mean and mad mental state--I hate getting [raked over] by a band I *used* to like--that I can't calm down enough to recommend an alternate."
