So after a few years of waiting for a new release, we're introduced to the new beast "Tetra Karcist" by Enthroned- but this time around with a slightly different line-up, which includes a new vocalist. I must say, I'm pretty happy with the change, especially in terms of the new vocalist. The new front-man's (I can't recall his name) vocals are, in my opinion, a lot better. They're more guttural and intense, whereas the last vocalist, as Enthroned fans probably know by now, gave a more screechy vocal performance. Not only are the vocals better, though, but the drumming has also improved (I'm not exactly sure but I believe they have a new drummer too). Actually it's some of the best drumming I've heard in awhile. The double bass drumming here is extremely fast and at times resemble the sound of a machine gun.

Aside from drumming and vocals, Enthroned has seemed to maintain their raw sound, which I personally see as a great thing. There isn't really a hint of commercialism here. They've also added a few eerie choir parts that really enhance the brutally haunting experience that is this new Enthroned album.

My only real problem with this release was some of the lyrics. The new vocalist is also the lyricist, so obviously I knew there was going to be a change in the content, but I still think some of the lyrics faltered a bit. But luckily, not all the lyrics are horrible ...some were actually quite good. So I guess it sort of balances out.

Overall, I'd definitely recommend this CD to Enthroned and black metal fans. There's not too much not to like about it, actually. It's intense, has some great guitar and bass pieces, extremely fast drumming, throaty vocals, and even some added choral parts that will send some shivers down your spine. It's worth your money.

It's been quite awhile since this discs release and since I got it it's spent a good portion of time in my cd player.  Every member is a master at the insturment he plays and utilizes them as best as they can.  Instead of making radio friendly songs that basically sound the same all the way through the song, SOAD will change tempos and Serj will change singing styles every few moments to keep the energy flowing.
There next LP is set for release in August and from the 5 songs I've heard off of it, it's going to be even better than this one!  I can't wait.

This book has improved immensely since the rough and awkward start of the first book.  That first awkward chapter of the first book is worth slogging through to get to here.  The writer improves with each chapter of this series he writes.  The last part of this book (no spoilers) has a powerful haunting scene.  The story doesn't flinch away from it at all which I very much appreciate.  Some things I had been skeptical about pays off because the characters start to question it as well.  Some of the secondary characters get a lot more depth here as well.  One of the kids sole character trait still seems to be "Elf Aficionado" though...  I will be the next book the day it comes out.

George has finally stepped out of his shell and got this vol. off on a better foot then vol. 1.  Gone?  Vocals as he slides in with a great effort.  His first album is the slower of the two and actually is quite a different sound then most are used to from George.  A little choppy but some good tracks for sure.  I think the ending track is what kills this set and feel the end didn't give this pretty good mix any bang.  But come on it's the first disc and it sure does have some pretty sick tracks.  The second disc brings back the acosta sound that all have come to love.  He finally found the tracklist to showcase his sound here as he completely nails it.  Disc 2 is a step forward.  Finally George comes back and gives me his favorite set since Lost World.  He ends this one with a great vocal track and I beleive this one is one of his best sets compared to Touched disc 1.  Enjoy.

This cd is so cool. I love the songs It's gonna be me and This I Promise You. It's so cool and way better than the first cd.

The story is clearer in this second volume, and Kazzie's writing seems crisper and cleaner in this installment.  The addition of new characters also improve the flow and increases the reader's interest.  Volumes 3 & 4 are eagerly awaited!

This saga is getting better and better the writer seems to be getting more comfortable with the subject and the people he has introduced.  I as a reader am also getting more comfortable with the style and where the writer leads us.  Can't wait to start the next book.

This album is a huge improvement. I mean it comes with videos and more extras than most hollywood dvd's. They have music videos and making of's. There are also 3 new wonderful tracks. This is a great gift for anyone who hasn't gotten the older version. Get this one it's much better.

Before I got QAD Season II I heard some people say that it's not as good as the first one.  Well, I didn't like the first season all that much (especially comparing to the British version).  However, the second season is amazing in my opinion.  The characters are more real, human and likable (even Brian).  There is just as much eye candy, sex and flashy cinematography, but the storylines are less sensationalistic and more thought-provoking.  It seems that the writers of the show are getting better and better with every episode.  Even acting is getting better.  After watching the first season I was merely amused.  After watching this season I feel like I can't wait to see more of these great characters.  Get this season as soon as you can, you won't be sorry.

Better than the first one! The world is brought into better focus, the characters become more detailed and the plot thickens. This book highlights the best aspects of the series.

So, for me it's in this volume where things get more interesting. Especially since in the previous volume some deeper story was touched and sort of a villain was formed. Here the story continues to build on that, and we even get to see the detective again in this story with a medium of his own (which explains his knowledge bout the daydremers). Also it gets a bit deeper into his life story.
What i liked the most was the tension built in this volume, especially the scenes of close ups and silence, where u actually feel the tension building, and expecting the worst to come. The whole vol is one story, which makes it even more perfect.
Ofcose the art is stunning, especially when it comes to the landscapes in this vol, and there is a lot of them this time.
I didn't have any problems with pointing which character is which, like mentioned in one of the reviews.

All in all, i enjoyed it a lot, and hope that it will continue in this direction in the next volume.
