First of all, Spiritus Mortis was not intimidated by the presence of Hynninen. The music itself is a rather logical sequel of Fallen. Several songs are longer though and the use of piano/keyboards is reduced to a minimum. The vintage feel remained, in recording techniques as well as in general mood. It makes The God Behind The Gods an album that halts between two opinions: on one side we have the smooth rocking tunes deeply rooted into traditional hard rock with vintage overtones (The Rotting Trophy, the Danzig-allied Heavy Drinker and the closing track Perpetual Motion). On the other hand we meet with long (traditional) doom
epics such as Death Bride (a stunning composition), Curved Horizon (also pretty well, mark the sonorous harmony vocals) and the theatrical and monotonous title track. This one includes a dark speech which is very captivating. One might call the lively guitar soloing in the faster tracks pure heavy metal.
