Metal Militia's Review:
Damn, the recent influx of demos has been top notch. And even though Time Unveiled isn't really a demo (they have two other full length releases) it certainly does kick ass. Featuring Ron Vento on guitars, bass, and vocals, with Tim Yeung (who also appeared on Hate Eternal's debut) destroying the kit, Aurora Borealis have made some impressive black/death metal.The guitar parts are reminiscent of South of Heaven-era Slayer in the sense that they create an evil and foreboding atmosphere that is actually disturbing to listen to. The vocals are straight up black metal vocals, in a similar fashion to those of Emperor or Mayhem, and compliment the evil atmosphere perfectly. Tim Yeung is a monster on the kit, and he should be. He deserved that finalist spot in the Slayer drumming competition and he shows why on this album. Precise and brutal, each song is a clinic on how to be an awesome metal drummer without compromising the flow and feel of the song.
While I don't think this album is strikingly original but it is very good for what it is. The riffs are awesome, the drumming is powerful, the lyrics are intelligent and the entire CD is enjoyable. I recommend this to any metal fan.
