1st review of the album available from BW&BK Magazine.
"A strange and unexpected brew, this. Almost entirely forgotten thanks to an over-populated scene and a dash of label neglect, Corporation187 have moved to aspirant UK indie Anticulture and produced by far their strongest album to date. Eschewing the overtly Slayer-ized melodic death tones of their first two full-lengths, the Swedes are showing their blackened roots a little more here, cooking up a hybrid assault that has as much in common with latter-day Marduk as it does with Carnal Forge. That means a greater emphasis on slower riffs and layers of menacing discord, with the expected bursts of brutal velocity used sparingly, ensuring maximum impact and devastation.There's even a touch of Enslaved-like anti-riff minimalism on the stately, atmospheric 'Procession'. It all marks a smart evolutionary step for these underdogs. On tracks like the restrained mid-tempo grind of 'Suffer As One', the scattershot dynamics of the title track and the wild and vicious 'Virus Nation', Corporation 187 sound like a band whose time has come."
