Regenesis Creation

About

Lyrically, the album is a concept album telling a fictional story of a race of beings from another world, exiled and forced with a new beginning to live on another planet. The ending song is the climax to the album when the new race conquers their enemies and are free to rule their new homeland. The album was supposed to be a 2005 release on the liner notes to the album but was not available to the public until May 2006. Before the release of the album, the band toured the UK, the USA and Canada to promote the album. The album received rave reviews from critics for a second time regarding them as "one of the best black metal bands in the country". The album is known for having a powerfully symphonic and melodic sound as well as sounding like a Scandinavian band has made the album. Most reviewers criticized the use of keyboards and thought they were overpowering the album, nonetheless it only adds to the music and gives off a powerful sensation to the music. "Quest of the Exiled" is the most requested song for the band to play live and is Donn Donni's favorite song Vesperian Sorrow has written.
