Needless to say the musicianship are on a high level, both when it comes to the classical musicians and the band themselves. These guys didn´t just write a bunch of death metal tracks and as an afterthought decided to put classical instrumentation on top of them. Secondly the classical orchestra and choir work with the core death metal tracks and not against them or parallel with them, which is where a lot of other similar projects fail, and third and last the quality of the compositions are really high and specifically designed for the purpose. ![]() Firstly the sound production is powerful, detailed, and clear enough to allow all instruments to be heard. 'The Great Mass' is one of those rare cases where it works though. Now on paper it always sounds impressive with a classical orchestra and choir in rock/metal music, but in my experience the combination fails more often than not.
