I find this to be more like melodic death than black metal (like Dissection), but eh, in this case, fuck labels--it's good for what it is, all around melodic shit. I find the solo in Soiled Unborn to be a little subpar...but hey, that's just me. The recording is damn good for being a basement recording. Sometimes I like the vocals, and sometimes I don't, but I'm not exactly gonna over look the fact that the vocalist does simultaneously does execute both brutal death growling and black metal shrieking quite well.
Overall, good shit, especially for an American band.
