A keyboard tone starts off the first song on this heavy metal album. The intro is enhanced greatly with the addition of keyboards. It creates an atmosphere of darkness and gloom. Unfortunately they play a minor role on the rest of the song and the rest of the album. However, this does not mean that the album's a disappointment. On the contrary, here we have a very neat piece of music. Biogenesis' music can be described as heavy metal. Yet there are various influences, vocally and music-wise. For example, in Legal Murder I notice a slight black metal influence (though this is definitely not black metal). Most of the music is heavy, with plodding riffs, yet without the obvious speed. Only occasionally the speed goes up, like in songs as Mental Violence and the thrashy Crystal Ball. A great song is I Am The One. Vocally there are two types of singing. On one hand there are raw and deep screams. On the other hand there's singing reminiscent of Eric Clayton of Saviour Machine. This album is of surprising quality. The recording is done well, making the guitars sound heavy while the rhythm section doesn't suffer under them. Rowe Productions may congratulate themselves for signing this band.
