"From darkened somber climes of Southern Finland, Born of Thorns was officially founded in '97. Musically, the style has evolved from raw, primitive black metal to a more symphonic, modern breed." -adapting Deadline Records' Covered in Filth biography
"Being completely blown away by an album is a rare occurrence not to be taken lightly. Now, be it a band that is narrowly established outside of their home town certainly snowballs such astonishment. Being the next horde in my ongoing Oak Knoll coverage, I am both pleased and honored to declare that Born Of Thorns is the past, present, and future of complex symphonic black metal! These Finns stand in supremacy with the likes of Borknagar, Arcturus, and Old Man's Child. Like their shadowy counterparts, Born Of Thorns could unquestionably lay waste to nearly every other act on the black metal market, without shedding a single drop of their own blood." An excerpt of Harley Carlson's review of New Horizon EP at metalreview.com
"Two are the things that someone may notice while listening to Born Of Thorns EP, New Horizons, their influences and their abilities as instrument players. Lets talk about the first part, the influences. Two of the greatest names that came out of Norway have to be without any second thought Emperor and Arcturus and it is quite obvious that those two great bands have influenced a lot Born Of Thorns, a band that seems to harmonize those two influences in a wonderful way. As for the second part, the members consisting of this Finnish combo are great players and they interpret their instruments in a stunning and unerring way leaving speechless the listener."
