    Widowmaker is a three-part epic that needs to be listened to in one sitting. The opener, "Part 1", is entirely dedicated to building tension and establishing the theme of the album and is by no means boring. "Part 2" and "Part 3" are two of the heaviest, most cathartic songs I have heard, and achieve (in conjunction with their predecessor) a magnificently hateful and dark atmosphere thatWidowmaker is a three-part epic that needs to be listened to in one sitting.

Fantastic album by an awesome band, absolutely deserves a listen Expand

    Grueling and utterly uncompromising, Widowmaker is a gift to humanity from a band that despises it. [17 Nov 2012, p.53]

    The result: a crushing musical experience easily among the year's best extreme-metal records.
