"When Satan Lives" was an absolutely ripping masterpiece of a live album and for some reason it seems like about fifteen years ago that it came out. "Insineratehymn" not only produces the reliable and gratuitous violence that's kept them aflame all these years, its modern day malevolence manages to even reinvent itself - albeit to a very subtle extent - as if getting your brains bashed in one more time evokes subtlety!

"Bible Basher," funny I should mention it earlier, is the lead track and here we're delving into uncharted territory with lyrics and words like, "Scum of Philosophy" and "Bash your Fucking Head in with the Book of his Insanity. . ." crude but effective. For over a decade this Floridian Death Metal deity has been spewing their anti-religious message to legions of loyal followers, and we'll assume they're don't all need to be associated with dark robes and nightly rituals. But seriously, there have been, and may never be another, to match the sheer magnitude or consistency of "Deicide."

"Insineratehymn" is fueled up and prepared to burn widely in the darkened minds of listeners. "Forever Hate You" and "Standing In The Flames" are two definites for the Falwell files! Satan most assuredly is the central theme here, lest anyone think they'd gone soft or something, but we find Mr. Benton taking the winged one in another context, less gratuitously it may be assumed and more a parallel to personal turmoil. At no point throughout the album do we get the idea that this man's spent even a remotely pleasing moment in his life.

"The Gift That Keeps On Giving" is almost like a midpoint break, where the let up in tempo is sufficient to get the point across. Also, we can add "Suffer Again," which rides the rail of traditional riffing, before returning the brutality twice as bad in its concluding moment.
