The first time I listened to this album I hated it. Morbid Angel's worshipers say that people who don't like this album are against experimental music which is wrong. I'm really open-minded when it comes to music, I listen to almost everything, that's why I was disappointed by Illud divinum insanus. Morbid Angel are able to make an album 100 times better than this one. I think it's a good idea to introduce more industrial and experimental in death metal. But the way they did it is wrong. Rob Zombie, The Berzerker, Ministry, Pain, Atheist, Pestilence, to name a few, have proven that the mix of experimental and metal can be interesting.
So, my first reaction was "What the fuck happened to you guys?". I have listened to I.D.I a lot, and now I can say that the more I listen to it, the more I like it. I found a way to listen to it, a way that doesn't make me want to kill myself (8 years!): I only listen to "Existo vulgoré", "Blades for Baal", the second half of "10 more dead" and "Nevermore". It creates the illusion that I.D.I is an E.P. Then I listen to "Too extreme!", "Destructos Vs. the Earth / Attack" and some songs from industrial bands such as :Wumpscut:, Combichrist and Hocico.
My advice is to take I.D.I as 2 albums entangled, and to prey for a "Death Magnetic".
