Experimental
album for this historic band that comes back after two
years. What a delusion!!
This cd is
very far from gothic...their music tries to mix Psychedelic 70's and
alternative rock...but the songs are not up to the task...........
The first
single "Ghost
of the sun" is a very strange song that mixes
elements of Psychedelic rock and alternative metal guitar...a very
bad song...i think that they've tried to play something original but
result is very far from what it would be!!!!!!!
"Sleeper"
is another useless song...what a noise!! In this song they seem a
70's band!!!!
I have to wait
the track no.4 before i can finally listen to something
good..."A
premonition" is a good song in which they remind me to THE
CURE concerning the deepness of the sound.
"Will I arrive"
shows Katatonia's soul.....a very hard song in which the refrain
shows all their melancholy, but unfortunately not every part part of
this song is well-structured.
The atmosphere
of this album never changes and sometimes it's very boring, although
Katatonia are still able to surprise here and there with
touches of nice melodies: but it's not sufficient because the
structure of the tracks is unsuccessful. The sound made by the
guitars is as bad as the vocals which are simply
tedious !!
Just some
words for "One
year from now" , that is a very sad ballad that may be
compared to an alternative rock one
The cd goes on
and there's nothing to save till track no.13......"Inside the City of Glass"
which in my opinion has something in common with Sentenced
instrumental tracks: it's a very depressive gothic
song!! Only one good track....does it worth the price of this cd??
