I'm not saying that it's bad, I haven't heard this album and I've enjoyed what I've heard from it a little more than older material. I also tend to be overly harsh when comparing, and a lot of it for me is in the bands aesthetic, not necessarily the actual sound. But off the top of my head I'd say:
Kidneythieves
Tristesse de la Lune
Jack Off Jill
The Cyan Velvet Project
Since I can hear these in Birthday Massacre, at least their older material, it kinda dulls it for me. I've heard Tristesse de la Lune and Jack Off Jill and I'd have to say that the similarities are very thin. You should give a full album a chance and you'd probably drop a lot of the associations that you're making with these other bands. I'd say that these guys have more in common with the nineties alt. industrial bands like God Lives Underwater, The Hunger, Gravity Kills, Econoline Crush, etc. Would you find this album to be an improvement over Walking With Strangers? I really liked songs such as Kill The Lights, Goodnight, Unfamiliar, Red Stars and Weekend off that one.
The only tracks I've heard are In The Dark, which didn't impress me that much, and Shallow Grave, which is a good track, but doesn't stand up against most of their previous material.
I loved the 'Two Hearts' sample though, and the closing track also promises to be great. I guess I'll just wait and see. It's kind of an "improvement". This seems like the album that they wanted to make with Strangers, but were too hesitant to. All the tracks are good, but the final four are awesome.

As I've said I've only heard a handful of tracks, I don't remember which ones. Not sure if they're representative of the band as a whole. I'll try this album when it comes out though

This album is really good, but I'd still suggest Violet as their best album.

I have to second Willie on that one... no album of theirs makes as good of a first impression as Violet.

Exactly! I CANNOT WAIT.

Yeah, they really aren't that heavy to begin with; they are more gloomy, if anything. But I'm thinking the whole "industrial" aspect in their music is a bit scarce now, they certainly have more of a "rock" thing going on.

Lacuna Coil? u dum?
But ooh la la, a review eh? That will be something I'll actually read from you.
