Critic's Review
Sean Carruthers, All Music Guide
In the nearly two decades between Brian Williams' first release as Lustmord and this release, not much has changed in his approach to the music, apart from incorporation of newer technology and a more polished recording technique. The album starts out promisingly, with dark digital drone textures with found vocals dropped in, but the first sign of trouble shows up about a minute-and-a-half into track two, at which point the album begins to resemble a late-20th century video game soundtrack (Myst or Populous comes to mind). Make no mistake: There's loads of atmosphere, and it sounds great...it's just a little bit too pre-fab throughout, making the track titles seem even more pretentious than usual.
