Album Description:
Feigning to be what one is not is something which Renaissance man Peter Tagtgren can never be accused. Tagtgren, a living embodiment of music, has been a central and active figure in the extreme metal movement for over a decade. With a list of Abyss Studio production credits (Dimmu Borgir, Immortal, Amon Amarth) linking him to some of the most groundbreaking albums of recent times and rightfully hailed by Alternative Press as the Rick Rubin of Scandinavian metal, the restless genius of the Hypocrisy mainman can be equally measured by the vast list of his own musical output. The latest fruit of his labor shows the band firing on all cylinders. A much-needed rest and a renewed love for all things death metal give the successor to 2005's Virus an injection of brutality and strength that show the vigor and melodic power this trio possess. With Immortal's legendary drummer Horgh the stars have aligned, and Hypocrisy will conquer!

The lineage of a lot of the songs on this album can be traced back to several albums in their history. And this is not a bad thing; it's as if you get the hits from all their previous albums. There's even a song where Peter switches to his higher-register vocals for the entirety. The variety of the music on this album lends itself to repeat listens. There are a few tracks on this album that do not have much of a root in previous albums, and they are brutal, to say the least. This is a fantastic ...

A Taste of Extreme Divinity is one of the best albums Hypocrisy has ever made. This album is excellent from beginnning to end with absolutely no filler. Vocals range from low to high and the songwriting takes you on a ride. Highly recommended for anyone that is a fan of death metal, metalcore, or American heavy metal.

I think this is a superior album to their last three or four. Maybe it deserves a higher score than the four I gave but it's not perfect like The Final Chapter. It is, however, better than almost any metal I've heard this year, definitely on my top ten list. This album is a better investment than the new Slayer. It's crushing in it's heaviness. It has Peter's trademark production. There's also a variety of melodies, and tempos going on here that hold the album together well. Sometimes it's black metallish, ...

When you open the jewel case for the cd, you'll notice the fan dedication on the back of the booklet. Take that as an invitation to destruction as you pop the disc in because as it starts, the band blasts right out of the gates and through the speakers. Peter Tägtgren and co. definitely know how to keep things fresh and heavy, and by making an album such as this that blends a lot of the sounds from their previous albums (Abducted, Final Chapter, Self-Titled, Into The Abyss, Catch 22, The Arrival, and Virus), ...

first and foremost this is my favorite band...period. so you may think this is bias, or maybe you agree. before this came out i was of the opinion that behemoth's evangelion or the black dahlia murder's deflorate was the best thing out this year. even with my bias toward hypocrisy i wasnt sure how they could top those two monster albums. but upon the first listen to this modern classic i was pleasantly surprised to hear not only the best thing of 2009 but, probably the best hypocrisy album yet (even though virus ...
