Personal Favorite... Riff wise..........2007-07-21

First BEHEMOTH album I heard was Demigod, which blew me away... but when a friend played me Thelema6, I was hooked as a fan! Riff wise, this one just grabs ahold of me and never let's go, second runner up Zos Kia... And Demigod is just a deathmetal machine as tight as a nun's $#@hole... Just ordered the newest, so should be here in a few days... f'n stoked!! Behemoth rules!!!

great death metal in a sea of false contenders!.......2005-12-28

Behemoth are one of the most brutal death/black metal bands out there, to have survived as long as the average death metal life span has the misfortune not to. Not only have they survived in record releases, but have kept the releases fresh; pummeling you all the while!

This release continues along that road.

What I like most about this release is that at this point in their career they've chosen to adopt a style remeniscent of the best of both Emperor and Morbid Angel. Other bands have done the same, but with no where near the same technical proficiency and creativity, while still keeping it brutal (brutal! brutal!)

If you like this, you'll love "Kia Zos Cultus" and "Demigod".

More Experimental then their later works........2005-02-20

I love Demigod to no end with all the middle eastern folk intros experimented on it but if you want to really hear Behemoth experimenting check out this album. Nergal even puts some surprising hidden easter eggs on this album which I will get to later. First of all is the industrial effects Nergal puts into some of the songs. Chains, spoken word stuff, wind, and just good mesh of everything. Just to hear the production by this band is a surprise to itself. That is if you have never heard the production from fellow Polish thrashers Vader. There is something about Polish bands wanting to give their best to their fans. Anyway getting to the easter eggs we find 3 hidden songs. The first is some weird chant that just scares the bejeezus out of you when it blasts on. Next is my favorite. It's a ripping cover of (get this) Queensryche. Yes I said Queensryche. Deathmetal sure knows how to honor the classic bands. Behemoth covers a edited track of Sister Mary from Operation Mindcrime. Man and I thought their cover of Wish from Nine Inch Nails on Conjuration was well enough this blows me away even more. Nergal even does some gothic singing though would have Geoff Tate banging away too. I tell you this band never ceases to surprise me. Check them out get this first and then Demigod then Zos Kia Cultus. Actually you should grab conjuration first since it's a limited EP if you really want to hear how they cover Nine Inch Nails. Then get the rest. Also if you want grab historica which is a box set of all their black metal ep's even from when Poland was still soviet bloc state. Too bad Nergal goes to no end putting himself down over those releases.

PURE EVIL.......2003-03-23

"We believe the majority of mankind should be killed because it is not worthy. It is not worthy of the gift of life". This album starts out with that quote, and the second you hear that you know this will be one undeniably evil experience. This album is fast, brutal and technical and any death metal fan should enjoy this as well as any other album from Behemoth. All songs are good but I believe the standout track would be the opener "Antichristian Phenomenon". If you like satanic death metal you can't go wrong with this CD or with this band.

outstanding.......2001-07-23

I'm defintely not a die-hard death metal fan, not even that much into metal to begin with. That much said, I have to say that Behemoth's 'Thelema.6' blew me away, it's intensity and raw sound make it stand out from the rest of the crowd. Which is what I can't stand about most of their contemporaries - they just play the same generic stuff, taking themselves way to serious. Behemoth seem to really enjoy what their doing and their enthusiasm shows: this album does not have one filler song, each one could stand on its own and all show a solid understanding of actual song writing. The drumming is superb and underscores the band's super tight structures. The vocals are your usual 'Cookie Monster' style but very raw, angry and yet never dull.

I would put them on a level with Nile: take a genre, use the traditional ingredients but bring out something that is genuinly new and surprisingly fresh. I guess Death Metal is not dead yet.

Album Description

A departure of sorts, the six songs on Thelema find the six-piece exploring musical terrain that is as informed by the obstacles of their past as it is by an ambitious quest for the unconquered. It's a sound that can't be compared to the influences constantly referenced in early reviews of the band. Having served their purpose, those influences and markers have crumbled away and with Thelema The Murder City Devils have honed a vitality and style entirely their own, one that is elastic in structure, profound in its lyrical content, and melodic in tone.

Customer Reviews:

in the end.............2005-02-22

This is one of the best, IF NOT THE BEST, rock groups in the last fifteen years. I never got to see them live in person but have seen numerous videos and regret not seeing them every time I listen to any of their albums or dead low tides albums. Buy any of Murder City Devils albums and you have purchased one of the most under rated rock bands of all time. I only wish that they hadn't of called it quits. I really feel that they were only scratching the surface of their potential.

hypnotic.......2003-07-01

i bought Thelema on a whim in a record store in Santa Barbara, as I had heard my friend's MCD tribute band play once, although i didn't pay much attention to the show at the time. I put the 10" vinal on in my dorm room... This is an amazing record, i rank it amongst Radiohead's Kid A and Devo's Freedom of Choice. The most original sound of the late 90's and early 2000's.

Brilliant.......2001-09-13

Why don't you have this gorgeous music? Give me one song on here that is not musical or lyrical genius.

Nothing but howl.......2001-09-11

I've been listening to the devils for several years now, and I must say, like a fine wine, they too get better with time. Not as rock and roll as their earilier releases, this EP is more of a hypnotic descent into madness, a nice direction to travel I must admit. Also featuring 364 Days. If you didn't pick up the Christmas 7" you'll want this regardless.

Up to the ears, up to the neck, it's for the curious..........2001-09-05

Once again the Devils have outdone themselves. This EP literally kicks in the doors, climbs in the windows and mesmerizes the listener with wonderful dark howling and organ sounds for whisky guzzling demons, wandering alone in the night. The Devils are saving your rock and roll soul. Hop on board, leave the road, follow the path, it's midnight at the drowning pond and I'm glad, glad you're here for the midnight service...
