3 out of 5 stars 3 1/2 Some good Stuff, but some bad filler.......2007-04-02

The one thing you might notice about "Serpents of the Light" is that Glen's vocal seems to be acutally audible, which makes for a change of pace. Its still pretty fast and furious, as always, but still seems to have some "filler" that just plain sucks. The tracks that really stand out are Bastard of Christ, Slave to the Cross, Creatures of Habit, and the title track. The rest, well just seems like noise, with sloppy playing. Its not a bad album, its just not anything that really stands out and grabs you. At least its better then "In Torment in Hell"!

4 out of 5 stars My Favorite Deicide CD.......2006-10-22

Okay Now Alot Of Deicde Fans Will Smite Me Saying Legion & deicde > all, and yeah there probably right, but i enjoy this cd the most, mostly because it isnt Saying how Satan Is God Everytime That They turn Around, and lyrically they are most creative here, it's also there only older relase that can link up to there new ones, so if you liked stench id get this

4 out of 5 stars Oh. You again........2006-06-08

In all seriousness, you really need to cut it out. I've read your reviews, and they're nothing but low ratings due to the fact that your offended by satanic lyrics. You knew that your preaching is meaningless, yet you post it anyway. Point given, if you don't like the lyrics, or in a broader sense, the music itself, than go listen to something else. But quit telling people to stop listening to their faveriote music. Its not going to work.


Oh and for the record, I am a religious person.

5 out of 5 stars Very well played.......2005-12-22

let me start by saying that deicide is my FAVORITE death metal band...
with that said, let me tell you about this cd
if you have listened to deicide before, you know what to expect from one of thier cds...and you know what kind of quality the music is...this cd is different than others in that respect
the quality of this cd is much different than the rest of decide's masterpeices, which seems to be its only flaw...when listened to side by side a song from another album, the quality sounds much less powerful
but if youre just listening to this cd, it grows on you and you barely notice
im sure many of you are familiar with the horrible quality that is a black metal album...let me assure you that the quality of this cd is much much much better than that, just less powerful compared to deicde's other cd's

on to the cd itself
every song is a good one, and all tracks stand out as their own being
thats why i love deicide
if you want a good album to start with from deicide, i suggest either scars of the crucifix, or their greatest hits...they will give you a good taste of what deicide is...
if you have already listened to them, then i sugest this album

quite a masterpeice it is
anways, thanks for listening to me rant

HAIL SATAN!!

4 out of 5 stars A dark, angry underrated album .......2005-08-06

After "Once Upon the Cross" Deicide seemed to have gone back to basics. Gone is the relentless speed of past albums, replaced with a more refined approach to songwriting. The speed is still plenty there though, at least as much as the debut.
Serpents of the Light also features something brand new to Deicide at the time, MELODY! The vocals are debatedly better than the previous release, and the lyrics much more serious (though still on the subject of organized religion and Christianity. The music on this album sometimes approaches a, sort of, black metal style of some of the riffing, and some of the melody nearly points the way to what was beginning to brew in Sweden at the time. Case in Point: "Blame it on God". Blame it on God is my favorite song from here, with a awesome melodic riff and refrain that almost reminds me of Star Wars (the dark empire march type music that is). The diminshed riffs and solos on the song definitely take Deicide up to a level that is further explored on their newest release, Scars of the Crucifix. This is slowly becoming my second favorite Deicide album (or maybe third, Legion is still killer) and I didn't expect anything past the first two to be worth anything. Goes to show one must always give things a try for themselves and not listen to others criticisms, oh well. The secret weapon of the album is obviously the blossoming talents of the Hoffman brothers. Brian in paticular had started to get better and better at soloing, and on this album it starts to show. Lessons (including classical) were received, and it only made Deicide's music more DELICIOUSLY EVIL!

An underrated, killer release that points to a career that couldve been, instead of the unfortunate predicaments that the band found themselves in later (along with undeserved public scorn not at all reflected in album sales (a hint of jealousy perhaps?) )
