Your Review:

"S.E.T.I." sounds a little bit like this new "Theatre of Tragedy" stuff without their female singer "Liv Kristine Espenaes".
Nagash aka Lex Icon sings with clean vocals and the songs are industrial-inspired popsongs.
Not really bad, but it has absolutely nothing to do with the old "Covenant" (with "C") Black-Metal-stuff or the great "Animatronic"-CD.
Ergo: it is not really a bad and not really a good CD. For "Die-hard-Fans" only, I think.

If you like Rammstein, Marilyn Manson, Depeche mode or Laibach: Buy it. If you don't: Try it.
it gives you a spacy way of living....

it is not equal to their previous albums, perhaps more industrial, but it is a hell of an album.
New paths are opened....

this album have some problems. it contains 14 tracks and about 25% of those tracks are great. while the rest of the 75% is only so-so or not even ok. but the good songs are really good and the so-so ones are easily forgotten. an ok album. im so relived that the awful singing style was changed from their last album.
7/10

This cd is for all the frustrated fans of Rammstein who are waiting a decent release after 3 years of hearing Mutter... Do not get me wrong, but SETI is quite nice but still too much average... Manson-like, Rammstein-wannabe and Rob Zombie-homage... all things change... the black metal is dead and rotting, but that was the logical consecuence of all the murders, all the burned churches and the all the good releases, in this case the Covenant changed... if they only could change the bandīs name, it wouldnīt be that bad.... The Kovemmstein perhaps...

The Kovenant - S.E.T.I was a worthwhile experience, and as most of the esteemed LSD reviewers here said there are alot of shit on that album, but at the same time there are still some GREAT songs, like Cybetrash, Star by Star, Stillborn Universe, Acid Theatre, Neon, Perfect end (Growls there are great) those are the only songs thats worth hearing, some other tracks , like 1 or 2 are OK, the other is nothing. like Via Nigativa, and the last 3 tracks are truly awful. this album worth a go, because it has new concepts, and sometimes its inspiring (The good stuff only) you will lose nothing if u hears the good tracks i recommeneded. my rating:
7/10

we all know that by now, the kovenant have fucked up both their music and their name in the buissenes. their music from nexus polaris and backwards was great... now it just sounds like a little heavier form for Manson... and we all know also that Manson sucks cocks in hell... anyway, i dont think its to late for Covenant (the Kovenant) to change music style...

This is not really a bad album, but Animatronic was much better!

Review by: warhellhammer



I love this CD. It is one of my favorite bands of all time. I love the song Acid Theatre it is so good. I like how they mix industrial with metal. thisCD is defanetly a 10*

Review by: EarthPentacle



this cd. sounds like marilyn manson mixed with rammstien. it is a disgrace to what they done on in "times before the light." if you're looking for black metal avoid this cd. if not avoid this cd. don't waste your time. listen to "slayer reign in blood" (best cd. ever)

Review by: celtic legions



Normally I don't buy a cd unless I've at least listened to 4 or 5 songs from it. But I made an exception in this case and it definatly turned out for the better. It took a little time to grow on my but once you get into it, I garuntee it'll be the best cd you own.

Review by: BlackWinter



OK so this album is a "little" different from the others and is my favourite of theirs but then again i listen to alot of different stuff instead of just grim black metal and it is well composed it's heavy guitar riffs and industrial backing goes really well.

Buy this Album

Review by: Amdusias



personaly i think its a brilliant album. however its a big change from the style of there earlyer albums. it gives the listener a spacey feeling.

Review by: atreustremere



HH drumming is awful.
There is no bass.
Donīt search for any guitar solo.
Animatronic at least was original...unlike "this",īcoz MMīs albums are much cheaper and the sound itīs the same!!
PLEASE DONīT BUY THIS CRAP
Covenant (R.I.P)

Review by: basque_goddess



this is a great album, it blends black metal with an almost techno vibe. it is a nice escape from the mainstream metal scean. i enjoyed the diversity of samples use. this is a great band.
