Opener "Suffocation at Birth" is not the best track in the album (mostly because the drumming just gets in my nerves), but it does finish with a nice melodic solo. It gets better as the album progresses and I found "Possessed" and "Raping Christ" rather enjoyable and in all honesty much better than the first two tracks. The album also includes two keyboard instrumentals: "Reflection", which is OK, and "Final Calling" as an outro, which is rather pointless.

The production does not do the music any favours, as it is recorded in a home studio, but it is serviceable. I am surprised that they have only released one demo and then went straight ahead to release a full-length. Indeed, if this was a demo I would certainly give it two thumbs up, as there is definitely some effort, enthusiasm and guts spilled in there, and they have potential. But as a full-length proper release, it trips itself due to inexperience. If they work as a proper group, find a decent drummer (I cannot comment on the live drummer as I have not heard him), improve the production and become a bit more coherent in their songs, the next release will probably be a very good album. For now, I can recommend _Raping Christ_ only to hardcore death metal fans and underground aficionados.
