Petah-Tikva based entity has shown much promise with their initial The Beloved's Cry demo recordings back in 1993, approaching rough doomy death metal with a peculiar middle eastern twist to it, totally uncommon in early nineties - on par of that success they have nailed down four more compositions and one year later have launched this two-chapter debut longplay, now considered cult in atmospheric metal genre, giving birth to oriental direction; rich in expression, heavy and convincing numbers with a very cinematic vision hit you out of the blue and leave speechless until the next listening round comes, proving this to become a timeless classic; recent ultimate three panel digipak re-issue celebrates 25th anniversary of the band with a sound remastered from the original DAT tapes, revised artwork and layout plus historical introduction to oriental metal by Kobi Farhi
