Reviews

"terrific album, would Wakizashi like to play in the "Death By Chaos Tour"? "

GingaNinja

"The cover, the songs, the concept, all make for awesomeness and the best Wakizashi record yet!"

Crypt_Keeper

"The brilliant return of, in my mind, the most under rated bands here on figment. Once again, the album is flawless! Stacked with amazing songs {Inheritance (Spirit Sword) was my favorite} and a stunning cover, this album blows everyone away...and then you notice the concept, which turns your brains to mush with its awesomeness. 5 stars out of 5!
