Where this album fits

Career context
Released in 1999, 'Revolution DNA' was Septicflesh's fourth studio album, coming after the band's significant shift towards a more symphonic sound with their previous album, 'A Fallen Temple.' At this point in their career, they were solidifying their identity within the melodic death metal and symphonic genres, distinguishing themselves from their earlier rawer style. This album marked a new chapter as they began integrating orchestral arrangements into their music.
