While
Ceremony of Opposites
used keyboards only to accentuate the guitar lines, 1996's
Passage
finds
Samael
fearlessly integrating the two instruments in equal amounts. Drummer/keyboard player
Xy
programmed all his drum parts and uses various synthesizer effects (especially simulated chorus vocals) to create a highly original, post-industrial,
black metal
sound. Opener
"Rain"
is simply stunning, with all of the aforementioned ingredients underpinned by a relentless double kick-drum. Despite their sweeping keyboard melodies, less frenetic highlights such as
"Angel's Decay"
and
"A Man in Your Head"
sound even darker than other tracks -- like hellish symphonies. Lyrically, the album finds
Samael
in an esoteric, outer space mode, especially on
"Born Under Saturn,"
"Jupiterian Vibe,"
and the excellent
"Moonskin."
While sonic comparisons to Sweden's
Tiamat
are inevitable (due in part to long-time
Tiamat
