Another Impaled Nazarene album already? Sticking to the schedule, Imp Naz has another on the board following up 2004's studio full length "All That You Fear. If you think Imp Naz couldn't get any better, it does, better than "All That You Fear" anyway.

"Pro Patria Finlandia" is another 14 tracks thrashing declarations of war, destruction, pagan ruling and impending terrible death. What makes this album so much different from past releases is not much at all. Imp Naz fans hooked on the group could probably pick apart miniscule differences but for the sake of spending words, this album is certainly harsher than the last.

With "Pro Patria Finlandia" you will be more than satisfied as it ranks up there with "Absence of War Does Not Mean Peace". The album cuts any bullshit and drills right into the vicious black death thrashed madness the band is apt to. The length of the tracks is questionable as you can only go through the same speed progression and chorus for so long and so many times, yet on tracks like "One Dead Nation" you'll want to hear that tag line over and over. The album will have you reverting back to the first six or seven tracks towards the end of its duration though but that's not exactly a bad thing.

In its entirety "Pro Patria Finlandia" is just as one would expect from Impaled Nazarene and the cleaner production thickens the band's overall sound giving you that sound of impending world war.
