Synopsis

Product Description

The latest work from the Swedish masters of doom is both tragic and beautiful, and filled with songs of longing and drama. Only Draconian is able to so skillfully follow romantic passages and wonderful female vocal arrangements with the tuned-down walls of darkish riffs and violent vocal passages or even compose dreamy melodies fit for an eternity, only to forcefully tear them down. A beguiling yet heavy fusion of Doom and Gothic Metal.

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Draconian's depth of darkness is something to behold no doubt but with an element of beauty which shows real class. Turning Season is the best release yet with tracks such as Seasons Apart, When I Wake, Earthbound, The Failure Epiphany, Bloodfower and The Empty Stare the finest in doom/gothic. The instrument tones, material and production are like daggers through the heart. And then there is Lisa Johansson - truly one of the most endearing and exquisite singers ever. They could do without about 90% of the cookie monster thing though and I do wish it was just Johansson on vocals. I would consider Draconian to one of top 5 in metal along side of Within Temptation, Lacuna Coil, WitchBreed and Opeth."

"draconian seems to have reached a new level with this latest album featuring some of the bands best songs to date. musically they have put together some epic tracks with beautiful lyrics and really bring out some great male/female vocals. seasons apart and earthbound are the tracks that stand out as just plain amazing while given time the album in its entirety begins to feel special. im really blown away by the depth this album."

Most amazing!

"I waited for this album to be released and all I can say...one of Draconian's best! I became hooked as soon as the album started. The song "Earthbound" just reels you in. The female vocals and distant growls bring the beauty in this song to life. I highly recommend this album to fans of My Dying Bride, Swallow The Sun, and Virgin Black."
