They Screwed Up Circle of the Tyrants
The first half, or the "Morbid Tales" portion, sounds great. This is a killer album. Great remix. But when you get to the "Emperor's Return" portion, the remix is horrible. Which sucks, because the main reason I bought this album was for the original "Circle of the Tyrants" recording. The guitars are way too low on this portion, and the vocals are almost completely drowned out. The wonderful reverb on the vocals is lost. It sounds as if he's singing under a blanket behind a closed door. I was pissed.
But I will say that I was thrilled with "Dethroned Emperor" and "Into Crypts of Rays," which sound awesome. I love the way he pronounces it "DATHroned EPAHrah!!" If they would have left the other portion alone, this would be a perfect album. .


AMAZING
the only thing i wish i could change would be why didn't i get this cd sooner. This is the first cd i bought of celtic frost and i freaking love it. JUST DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND GET IT NOW IF YOU DONT ALREADY HAVE IT.


Black Metal Classic!
If you're a fan of old Venom, this will be right up your alley. This is one of my favorite black metal albums.


Thrash Hall of Fame
Almost all of these songs have been covered by other bands on various thrash labels. Probably one of the most influential bands in the entire history of Thrash Metal. . . . Raw, Brutal and Beautiful. . what more can you say?.


Celtic Forst Returns
Celtic Frost opening into Human, can often be seen as horrific and to those people i say. From their old Vanity/Nemisis days, Celtic Forst (formerly Hellhammer) pumps it up and shoot their music farther into the death metal genre with their insanly dark riffs. . . DUH! thats the point! its all hardcore from Human all the way down to Suicidal winds. I Recomend you buy thise album if you were or are a Celtic Frost fan.
