Jesus Loves You Useless Corpse
A pleasant listening experience, a very pleasant listening experience. With Marduk you're never quit sure what you'll get: La Grande Danse Macabre, World Funeral, Plague Angel or Panzer Division Marduk. Although the sound may very, you can be sure that buying a Marduk album is buying a one way ticket to HELL. If those Judeo Bible pushers are right, and this will send me to hell, I'm proud to back my bags and be on my way.

From the moment the album starts to moment it finishes, Rom 5:12 is an assault. An assault on your eardrums, an assault on society, and an assault on tradition. This album pounds and pummels you until you can't possibly take anymore, and when it's over, somehow, you push play again. The songs are fast, intense and have lot's of depth. Someway, somehow, after all these years, Marduk manages to gear up and sound fresh all over again. No matter how many times I listen to this album it never gets old. Every time I listen to it (in the headphones) I hear something new: A bell, A whistle, A growl, something.

Bottom Line: This album is a must have. If you're a fan of Marduk, you will not be disappointed. If you're not a fan, this album might make you one, or at least give you a reason to have some Marduk in your collection.

One of my favorites
As soon as I heard the first song I knew this was going to be good. Rom. 5:12 just kept getting better as it went on.
Soon I discovered that Marduk was turning into my favorite black metal band. I don't care what "true" BM thinks. I'm about being true too...to MYSELF.
Meaty AND clear production. A great balance of all the instruments.
The vocals are guttural yes, but mostly discernable. Switching up from lows to highs and then the extremity gives way to actual singing at times, which is unexpected. The delivery is always so appealing to my sense of what it means to be passionate about what you love most. Most times Mortuus sounds like his throat is slashed open. Real gurgled sounding. His vocal style stands out in a genre that sees stand outs less and less.
The bass has always been up in the mix in Marduk's other albums, and this is still pretty much the case here. Solid.
The guitar IS KILLER! Morgan keeps it interesting with the time changes. Some songs are slow. Kinda epic. Marduk are still FAST. No b/s here. Urgent, confrontational and catchy even. I love Morgan's guitar sound. Devastating and clear, executed with brute will and forcefulness. Makes me glad to be a man.
Now the drummer on the slow tracks is a good man. But the guy on the fast stuff is so damn amazing that I could go on and on about how tight, fast and varied the drumming is. Just plain FUN to listen to! Yeah, this album is fun! Highly recommended.
