true Norwegian black metal stalwarts hate to stay without a new recording for too long, and deliver nine cuts of merciless grooves for the eleventh time [2004], but there is one quite important issue - it marks the end of their authentic black metal era as such, what further recordings that followed pretty shortly have revealed: nevertheless, its cold sinister atmosphere brims with old-fashioned hatred and sharper, slightly more refined production, bolstering the aggressiveness of songwriting, while thrashy and rock'n'rollish spirit adds to the diversity of material, predicting even bigger changes on their next couple of records; Hate is the Law track features guest vocal appearance by Apollyon [Aura Noir], recent British edition
