    As expected, "Bohemian Dark Metal" is again pretty good. <----- Not as good as their earlier stuff, I thought. I was slightly disappointed.

    As expected, "Bohemian Dark Metal" is again pretty good. I love the Czech Avenger, a really really really talented but totally underrated band... Saw them live once in 2002 or 2003 I think and it was totally Killer! They also played a Master's Hammer Cover (Pad Modly)... Great gig!

    The Czech band is one of the most underrated black/death bands of all time. Tight, seamless songwriting and a bitter, aggressive atmosphere. [5]
