Perhaps after I've heard the whole album I'll feel differently, that was just my initial impression.

Or maybe I AM crazy lol at least I got the Death part right :P

I've listened to the 3 myspace songs off of this, and while the music is great, I can't really stand the vocals. The harshest vocals I really like are the screaming esque ones. These are just meh.
I hate you. The vocals are my favorite thing about this band. I LOVE how fucking guttural they are.

This album is just way too good. The melodies are way too sweet. The atmosphere is just way too awesome. Get this away from me before I'm never seen again. Crimson, you are like a plague upon my musical intrigue. Stop reviewing absolutely amazing albums. Thank you.

The vocals aren't too bad at points. The 3 songs are pretty good but I disagree that these guys are better than Insomnium.This Message Edited On 09.09.08

I'm in the, like, 1% of the metal population who think Insomnium are overated. Not that I dislike them, not by a long shot, I just don't really get them like everyone else seems to. They're more of a 3.5 band for me.



Saying that though, I only have their latest albumThis Message Edited On 04.20.08

Crimson, another fine review and probably your best to date. I'm really excited to hear this because of your persuasive writing skills. One correction:



unorganised
*Organized (first paragraph)

I just think they outright suck. Really fucking boring band.This Message Edited On 04.20.08

Which is my favorite, and I think their best, so I doubt you'd change your mind about them.

Seriously though, what happened to these guys, this looks to be their only album...?

They split up in 2002.

I'm still gonna look out for more insomnium material, like I said, I enjoy them a lot, but I don't love them and wouldn't count them among my favourites.

Ok, I just checked out one song on their myspace and I'm hooked. I don't see how the Insomnium references crept into this forum, but these guys make them look like a bunch of posers.

Wizard I seriously don't see how you think Insomnium is terrible. Considering your musical taste I find it VERY strange.

It is very strange considering the categories of metal they fall under. I'm pretty open to most types of metal.

Above The Weeping World was recommended to me a while ago and I found it to be a snoozefest. Thats all I've heard from them and I really have no interest in hearing anything else they have put out. They are like a wussy man's Opeth hahahaha jk.



On to the second song off their myspace page and I'm blown away. I wish I knew where to buy this. Amazon has it for $55 and theomega order doesn't carry it.

On this band's myspace there is a link to download it for free. I saw that AFTER I downloaded this on Itunes lol.
