Deconstructive urges in the tugging, descending spirals of rhythmic breakdown that are the classic emblem of Immolation's riffing combine with melodic phrases that use oblique harmonies to silhouette central themes to the music. Offtime riff placement and interludes of blast beat sequences move larger structures within each song pattern, driving toward a conclusion in the same melodic voice that was seemingly divergent earlier in the song. Melodies form simultaneously around major riffs and are made symphonic with delicate, exact and creative soloing. All instrumentalism is amazing, as are the bass-heavy vocals which eschew a guttural puke for a rigid enunciation. Percussion at lightspeed emphasizes the rigid dissidence of this viewpoint in sound.

With lyrics deriding Christian intellectual deception matching the overly Satanic feel to this oddly paced and dissonant music, the sound this band have carefully shaped over three groundbreaking albums becomes a weapon of intense musical immersion.
