Aaaaaaggghhhh! These guys scare me! Actually, taking a similar visual approach to Cradle of Filth and some of the black metal bands from Norway, this talented group of believers play a ferocious fury of metal with total unblack vocals. Mixing some organs along with the blast beats, these guys have orchestrated a pretty cool set of 11 songs. The melodic riffs of "Kongsblod" and "Battlefield" are good examples of their musical proficiency and songwriting taste. Much of The Return of the Black Death are sung in a foreign tongue. They make a pretty good case for the, "You can't understand what they're saying," argument!

If it weren't for that piece of illegal activity, i would have passed antestor up at first listen. Overall, this is a good album. Solid with it's sorrow metal tones and black metal heart.
