Even ten years later, I don't think I'll ever quite get accustomed to Malacht. Like them, I was saved unto Christ after a long time in the occult darkness. During those former times, I listened to - practically based my life around - music that exuded dark, bleak, malevolent energy. Yet somehow, their music manages to sound more malevolent than all the years of that stuff put together. Yet having talked to Emil, I firmly believe that he and Mikael are real, mainline Christians. Not roleplayers like Batushka, nor "left hand with a bit of Christian ideas thrown in" like DsO, but real Christians. I deeply love their music and find it very beneficial in times of darkness and uncertainty, but I often find I can only listen to so much of it before it just becomes overwhelming.
This one fascinates me. It sounds like a musicalization of some scene from the Book of Revelation -- after the trumpet is blown or the seals are unsealed. I've spent plenty of time listening to extreme music, and it is really something that this devotional music (I suppose) is more terrifying than nearly all conventional black metal. I feel that the musicians make their horrors so horrifying in order to better dramatize the clashes between light and dark. One of my favorite moments is 2:00-3:00 where the forces of darkness appear to be pressing their advantage only for the light to break through in a heroic reversal. I feel like I can listen to this album on headphones while looking up at the ceiling and watch this grand mythological battle in the heavens. It seems that many find this music to be inscrutable, but that is a shame, because there is a lot going on in the noise here.

They definitely threw a ladder down for us with this one. Absolute masterpiece.
this is how black metal would sound like, If God ordered his angles to make it
