One of death metal's finest albums of all time. Close To A World Below perfectly encapsulates Immolation's unique style of destructive, groovy, and dissonant death metal.

A powerful and heavy album by one of the most iconic bands in death-metal. 10/10!

The new face of Immolation. The album is, in its own way, a turning point, and therefore, naturally, is not devoid of some problems of the transition period. The main innovation: we will play even more confused and even more technical! ... Hurray, encouraged and accepted! The sound is just amazing, especially against the backdrop of the controversial production of past releases! Everything is very hard, broken, saturated with soreness and fumes of hellish sulfur. What have you lost? ... Lost tension, lost drive, lost the intensity of passions and interesting tracks ...
In total, the album is quite good, but if you take a step back to Failures For Gods, or a step forward to Unholy Cult, then it's easy to understand that the album is pale and is the weakest of my favorite band.

One of Immolation's best albums, if not the best.
So infernal and absorbing the dark atmosphere is not often found in such a superlative degree. However, Immolation is at the peak of creativity and inspiration. A killer hellish album.

Great album. One of the greatest death metal albums in 2000s. Immolation showed the new possibility of death metal.

Close To A World Below is for me in top 10 death metal albums ever made! This CD presents fantastic guitar riffs, great production (for death metal) and excellent drumming! Father You Are Not A Father is epic song. Check it out if you like death metal.

Immolation reaches their peak with this monstrous masterpiece of brutal death metal!Amazing technical skills from this legendary band!

Immolation nous pond un album rempli de noirceur et de de haine. Une véritable réussite après l'excellent Failure for Gods qui a marqué les esprits lors de sa sortie. Sur cette nouvelle réalisation le groupe nous propose toujours des riffs en béton, une batterie incroyablement lourde et un chant d'une profondeur inégalable. A posséder absolument.
