reception

criticism

The website Hiphop-Jam.net awarded the album three and a half of a possible five evaluation points. 666 is stylistically classified as " gloomy, varied, history-heavy, cold, critical and in places callous ". The background music includes “ lots of synths and dark pianos ”, which is appropriate to the subject. Basstards and Kaisa's ways of performing have improved, but they lag behind the content of the pieces. In summary, the evaluating editor describes 666 as an " atmospherically successful album that you can listen to, especially on rainy and dark days ".

indexing

666 was indexed at the end of November 2010 together with the album Das Omen by the Federal Testing Office for media harmful to minors. It was placed on List A, which means that it can no longer be sold or advertised to minors.
