Yeah, I've been listening to this band for years. One of the few bands along with Dream Theater and Opeth that got me into listening to Metal. I also did a review of their Mabool album a few years ago or something.

Here's the link, although looking back at it now, I could never really express how much I really loved that album. Reading that review for the first time in years is pretty much an eye opener on how I approached reviews as a thing to do while bored on a saturday night. Not a lot of thought, but I guess the difference of a high school paper and a college paper is drastically different. Sorry, if it's cheesy or just plain sucks. I still do love this album though

PS: You might like Salem. They were one of the original Israel Metal bands that introduced Death Metal/Black Metal kind of music to the underground community during the early 90's.

One of the, if not the only Israeli band with the capability of being succesfull in the big world. great band

lol, their lead guitarsit is a friend of my friends father(thats how it is in israel, everyone knows everyone lol) so i got a picture with him and i was also invited to a diner i couldnt attend, lol.
and yeah its the only israeli band who have the potential in my opinion to get and are getting intenational fame.
btw if anyone is up for it im trying to transcribe the storm still rages inside, cover it and maybe gp file it so other peopel can use it to.
