Well, I for one am fairly excited to hear a new Marduk album later this year, and this, their most recent, is a strong reason why. Marduk have proven a lot since
Panzer Division Marduk that they do more than just blast away - this has some top notch riffs on it. Although this is fairly orthodox (not meaning lyrically - although it might be, I haven't bothered finding out), it still departs from much black metal in its heightened melodic sensibility and a production that is fairly clean, and very much so for the genre. Fortunately, Marduk have avoided the overuse of dissonance that plagues so many modern black metal albums (Deathspell Omega may be just about the only band who can fully get away with it), and so this is, as it was in 2009, quite refreshing to listen to.
