Banquet in the Darkness

by Intestine Baalism

supported by

heterodoxies Simply put, this album is one of the finest melodic DM albums ever. I have wanted a physical copy since discovering this LP on the Metal Archives forum in the mid-2000s. Thanks to Nameless Grave for reissuing this masterpiece in a beautiful vinyl presentation!

HoloceneExtinction This record has an aura of ethereal brutality that few other Death Metal records have. Strong lead melodies over delightfully crunchy backing riffs make this one of the most intoxicating and sonically diverse albums in the Melodeath subgenre. Favorite track: The Avenger Full of Vengeance on God.

Brandon Corsair One of the best melodic death albums of the '00s- a notoriously bad era for melodic death fans that like their melodic death brutal and riffy- as well as perhaps the finest one to ever come out of Japan. Pure perfection. Favorite track: Banquet in the Darkness.

Joseph Weller This is a masterpiece! A feast to behold!

Josh H. Finally on Bandcamp! I can’t wait to see if they add the rest of their discography on here, this is hands down some of the best melodic death metal you’re ever going to hear.

An outstanding Extreme doom death album, in the best tradition. The funerary atmosphere reminds of Evoken ('Centuries of ooze" bears striking similarities, for my delight). It is overall sharp, dark, hypnotic and unrelenting. One of those rare convincing new bands that hold proud the legacy of the biggest names. Bertrand Marchal

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu

I'm kicking my own ass for somehow missing this when it released. Expertly arranged death metal with kick drums that could demolish a high-rise. zirtonic

Gnarly riffage mixed with ass kicking drum passages and nail pounding bass lines. Definitely give this one a shot. Tevho
