Bands need money to live. For those bands with a small but loyal following this means releasing an album every three years, then touring your ass off to promote it. And coming into the studio, shrugging your shoulders and admitting you don't have any real ideas isn't an option.

Record companies have needs too. They need (evidently) to master all their releases in such a way that all the human ear hears is a kind of irritating white noise. If you're still in any doubt about this, google "loudness wars".

So what we have is an album that's virtually unlistenable, there might be some good songs in there but it's impossible to tell. My overall impression though is of an album that doesn't really say, or do anything new. I would even say to the Burzum haters, compare the last Burzum album to this, now which do you prefer?

I give this...hmm...three stars, but mostly out of respect to Marduk's long service to Black Metal.
