Advantages: Original, brutal, better than many other death metal bands Disadvantages: Not to some peoples taste

Western society has the conception of man as a rational thinking animal as the very nature of man. But if thinking can get to the bottom or overcome the rational there might then be a change in human nature a transformation. Getting to the bottom of mans rational thinking is then in order to transcend the mind and in doing so to be able to overcome the ordinary function of the human mind. The reason for this is that reason, has to be overcome in order to think. Over coming normal thinking and conceptual thinking are then equal.
