"'The Manticore...' tones down COF's waftier symphonic tendencies in favour of gnarly punk riffing. Silly? Indisputably, although Dani Filth's theatrical vocals ensure that 'The Abhorrent' is every bit as grandiose and ridiculous as a classic Hammer horror".

"The enormous, raw-sounding guitars and blastbeat drum energy of earlier records are abundant here. Chief philosopher and frontman Dani Filth growls gutturally, shrieks, howls, wails, gleefully intones unholy mediations on myth and heresy, and seems to dive in full-force instead of merely playing a character ... COF achieve a victory here. It rocks".
