All Bal-Sagoth album's are pretty equal in my opinion. The Power Cosmic is my favorite one though. This band only make masterpieces. symphonic epic black metal with science fiction and also dark atmospheric lyrics with concepts. Greatly put together. Hail BAL-SAGOTH........

I'll be blunt - Bal-Sagoth is not a band for everyone. I don't particularly see a point in judging the lyrical content of black metal bands simply because the average person can't understand what's being shrieked anyway (of course, average people don't listen to black metal anyway), tho admittedly, the storyline woven throughout The Power Cosmic, and, for that matter, Bal-Sagoth's entire discography, makes for an unusual but refreshing listening experience, giving their songs meaning.

Musically they are very tight, the rhythm guitars and drumming in particular are very impressive, and the horn sounding keys set a mood unlike any other. The Professor Xavier vocals may take some time to get used to, but I think they are cool.. very unique.

If you're into Cosmic Futuristic Battle Metal then this album is for you! The inside booklet has a pic of the band with the singer wielding a lightsaber which basically sums up this album. The music is excellent, and very orchestral with blast beats galore. However the vocals recieve a 10/10 for cheese factor. The singer narrates most of the time and sounds like Nostradamus prophecizing about galactic warriors. The good vocals are when he screams black metal style. However, my main complaint with the album is the ...
