 "Illud Divinum Insanus" is nothing more than the new brother of "St. Anger" and "The Unspoken King"; thus, to be counted among the most obscene and disastrous "experiments" of all metal.

 The album sounds uninspired, incoherent, and tedious; an embarrassing collage of pseudo-experiments past their prime and weak metallic forays.

Attempts at blending industrial, electronic, and rave elements fall flat, producing an incoherent and sterile album. The few death metal tracks feel uninspired and fail to redeem the record. Production quality is criticized as artificial, diminishing the music's impact. Overall, the album is seen as a failed experiment that tarnishes the band's legacy. Read the full review and decide if Morbid Angel’s risky new direction is worth your time or a metal misstep to avoid!
