science fiction satanism?.......2004-08-15

this is a rather confusing album. the music is rooted in a black metal style but seems to borrow alot from modern hardcore and even power metal. but with lots of twisted riffery and stop-start technicality going on, it remains an entertaining listen despite some of the bad choices in genre hopping. the guitars are brutal and sometimes spacy and the drums and bass are killer and very powerful. but on alot of the songs sci-fi keyboards and crappy goofy samples litter all over the music. the lyrics are..interesting. most of the subject matter deals with space and tyrants and satan. which is all cool...but some of these lyrics are truly bad. sample lyric (from the 4th song "The Legacy"): "all souls wrapped in plastic and i wonder how it must hurt to see all the fears unleashed...a battlefield of indescribably beautiness." souls wrapped in plastic? beautiness? uurggh... i feel like Abigor are trying to accomplish something different here. some kind of black metal sci-fi hybrid. but the sci-fi aspect of it seems less of an epic Star Wars and more of a sub-par Battlestar Galactica. (there's even a song called "Battlestar Abigor".) i feel that it works sometimes but most times it does not. i also feel that the production seems to hinder alot of the power coming from Abigor's sound on this disc. the first few times i listened to this, i wasn't sure what to think of it. then i liked it alot. then after a few more months, i couldn't stand it. now i am somewhere inbetween. i'm certainly interested to see what Abigor unleashes next.

A whole new realm of black metal.......2004-06-22

These guys may have set the record for most leads in a black metal album, in fact im sure they have. I love the great minimalistic chaos discs of darkthrone, and mayhem, but whoa! These guys can play. This is a very abstract, and at times very melodic album. All lead by vicious black metal vox, that tear your ears apart. This album is quite an Experience, strongly recomended. I also recommend 'opusIX' -abigor(not found on amazon.com)

WOW!!!!!!.......2003-09-28

This is some good f***ing blackmetal. this is true vikingcore at its best. it goes from prog-metal to lightning fast blackmetal. ha ha ha amazing

A change for this band, but still one of their best.......2003-04-18

Abigor is my favorite black metal band, so I'm a little biased. But this album IS addictive, as someone else here had already written. No other band sounds like this. Although they, on this album, have removed a little bit of the multilayered rhythmic and melodic complexity that has always marked their music, it makes for a stronger work of art in the end. This thing just blazes: there are certain segments on this album that are the best things they have ever written. Extreme speed, achingly original melodies and bizarre atmospheres. Probably my THIRD favorite Abigor disk, after the beautiful Nachthymnen and the incredible Supreme Immortal Art. If you are a fan of original, creative, innovative music that is filled with passion and which strives to break through boundaries and stale cliches in the metal scene, check this out.

This album is adictive.......2002-10-17

This quite honestly is one of my two favorite albums. The only reason I say that is because comparing Cryptopsy's "None So Vile" to Abigor's "Satanized" is d@mn near impossible. Production is descent for a black metal disc. And seeing as how these guys refuse to play shows this is all you'll get in the way of experiencing their brilliance. If you like this album, I also suggest picking up Opus IV. Check it out, you'll love it.
