I loved this song. Some of their older stuff is better IMO, but I think this song had interesting nuances. It had more black metal undertones while their last two albums have been more death metal.
I think there was also some interesting parallels in the video that match Nergal’s battle against cancer. The girl takes the wine (medicine), she vomits, she loses her hair, goes through terrible pain – similar to a battle against cancer.
I had a more in depth analysis on my page if you are curious.
