While I most certainly enjoy this EP and appreciate all of the talent that went into making it, I can't say I'm totally sold on the end result as far as mix and mastering is concerned. Honestly, the only thing that bleeds through the muck are the guitars, keys and the clean vocals. Everything else is just thrown in abruptly to fend for itself, the screeching vocals are barely heard over the blast-beats and when it all gets going pretty good, your speakers will beg you for reprieve. Bottom line - tremendous music and talent, wretched mix and master. The band's full length is due this forthcoming Spring and I'm hoping to hear a more polished product. The influences that pour out of the five tunes on this EP range somewhere between early Cradle Of Filth, Dimmu and Emperor.
