CD Reviews

Amazing melodic and atmospheric death metal!
Matt Stoessel | Tolland, CT USA | 10/05/2003
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This band might be hard to accept by many as death metal. This is so soft and so slow that you'll think you're listening to some wacked out melodic metal, or maybe even softer doom metal. To start off with, I can think of 2 bands to make a comparison to. The drums on this CD remind me almost identically to that of Nightwish's on their CD "Over the Hills and Far Away". Earlier today, I was listening to a band on my to-buy list by the name of Kalmah. They are a brutal black metal band, but their keys and I think drums, also, reminded me of these guys. So if you are familiar with either of those bands, you have a head start on what this Finnish death metal wonder sounds like. One other "band comparison" thing I can tell you is that they do a cover of an Accept song, "Sick, Dirty, and Mean", as track 7 on this CD. They've made it another beautiful song to compliment the others on this CD. That reminds me... don't let the name of the CD bother you - there's not a single swear on the entire CD nor is there any mention of rape or anything. It's really a very clean CD, except for the vocals. Actually, at the beginning of tracks 4 and 5, there is a normal singer singing, kind of like a Sonata Arctica voice. I've already said that the drums are among the cleanest sounding you'll ever find... Oh yeah... Track 6 has the same melody that the Nightwish song "She is My Sin" has. Or at least it reminds me of that song. Now here's the stunner: Track 5 would generally be classified as a ballad. All you brutal-death metal fans have just got to be going WHAT?!?!?! It's that slow and soft. It is also one of the 2 songs that start off with a normal vocalist. Let's see... ... judging by this information, can you figure out why it is so hard to find a CD by these guys?! If you can find one of their CDs, probably their newest one, whatever that may be depending on whenever you read this, get that one instead. I bet Eternal Tears of Sorrow will always release CDs better than the last. They are softer than Skyfire, Norther, and even Children of Bodom. Did this review help you? If it did, say so! Then check out my other reviews. Lately, I've been reviewing mostly death and black metal CDs, but I should get to some melodic metal soon. One more thing... ... get this CD!"
An Amazing Masterpiece

"A totally great example of how melodic death metal should sound like: agressive, furious, yet with excellent music: amazing guitar solos and rifs, easy-understandable, but brilliand mellody.
If you love band like In Flames and At The Gates I guarrantie you you won't regret buying it.
The best songs in the album: Heart Of Wilderness, Prophetian, Fall Of Man, Blood Of Harted.
Enjoy!"
They decided to stick with melody on this one

"Their 2000 Chaotic Beauty album sounded EXACTLY like something Kalmah produces. The vocalist sounds exactly like the Kalmah vocalist (and no I don't mean Bodom or Norther, etc.). However, in this album, there is such a clear difference in the band's music. The keyboards stick out beautifully and actually sounds like something like a piano rather than used in accordance with a guitar solo. This album is art, and ultimately shows that death has its melodic moments."
