This band is an unknown band? Well that needs to change!

I love when bands have a nice slow build up in there albums. Just makes me want to keep listening. "Behind Walls" has a nice acoustic intro to the album, followed by a nice slow solo type thing by an electric guitar. To me it sorta has a Ride the Lightening feel to in. Almost makes you forget that you are listening to a Back/Death Metal album. That is until it kicks in. Then you know what you are getting into, fast and heavy Metal. "Buried in Oblivion" fades in that drums and guitars giving you that Black Metal sound. Where that first track gave me more of a Death Metal feel this one gives me a Black Metal feel to it. "Manipulation" has a nice Black Metal build up intro to it. This song has my favorite riffs in the album. "One to Lead" might be my favorite track on the album. It has a solid intro, great riffs and it is a really good mix of the Back/Death Metal sound in the album. The finally track "Prophecy" is another solid Black Metal sounding track.

This album is a good mix of Black and Death Metal. And should be able to please fans of both the genres. The musicianship is great. I just love the guitars in this album. And to vocals sound great. This is album is well mixed and sounds great. I know that a lot of Black Metal albums have low sound quality (coming from some one who doesn't listen to that much Black Metal), but this album sounds great! 

Rating: 8/10
