"Where some books retread old ground and retell stories you already know, Doom Metal Lexicanum is a journey into a new world for newbies and doom experts alike."
Kerrang!
"It is an absolute joy. Aleksey, take a bow and probably a well deserved rest too... You like doom? Of any kind? You need this. End of."
