Reception edit
CD Universe reviewed the album and gave it a positive score. It quotes:
Limbonic Art's comeback album takes a more direct approach, beating the listener into submission, rather than coiling around him like a serpent. Where synthesizers were a primary component in the band's past work, they are now used as punctuation marks to the band's increasingly brutal musical statements. Aligning themselves more with Behemoth and Angelcorpse, Limbonic Art has evolved from ambient black metal into a form of pure death metal. Still, the apocalyptic gloom of "Grace by Torments" is a reminder of the band's heritage. And, ever the expressive technicians, Limbonic Art wields its instruments with razor-sharp precision.
