The first 30 seconds of "Revenge by Fire" convinced me to get the whole album! It is a face-melting blend of speed and black metal, reminiscent of Hellripper! KVAEN is a Swedish solo project much like Hellripper but many known guest musicians helped J. Björnfot in his endeavor. Altogether it is really a solid debut album, I loved the melodies and the pace changes in the second half too, ending with a "calm" instrumental one. Well-done!! sachavonkarl74

The atmosphere of this album is fantastic. Makes you feel like you're knee-deep in the trenches drenched in mud, filth, sweat, and blood. Truly encapsulates the horrors of World War I, and the fact that the lyrics of some of the songs are taken from old war letters really adds to the authenticity.

The Bishop of Hexen is one of the most influential symphonic black metal acts out there, and The Death Masquerade is one of the premier developments in the scene. A mixture of overwhelming ambience, ballroom dance, and a truly evil atmosphere, Bishop of Hexen has truly mastered the art of developing a sound that sounds like the organized chaos of Hell's demons set loose upon the world, while also ensuring their sound has polish and organization that is almost unparalleled in the symphonic genre. americaneurosbmlover66613
