Somehow I never leave this deadhouse...
by Justin Kennedy Albany, NY

Wow. This is like nothing you've ever heard. I actually stumbled across these guys with the help of amazon.com, I am a big Paradise Lost fan and I saw the "people that like Paradise Lost also listen to..." and I figured I'd check out the bands on that list since nothing sounds like Paradise Lost either. Anyway this was the only one I got into and am I glad I did. They don't really sound like Paradise Lost but have their own unique sound. It's almost as if the lead singer is too depressed to even sing - but it works. The album ends up a miserable piece of art, if that makes any sense. It's still metal but not your typical mosh-pit metal. This is the kind that absorbs you, very atmospheric. The 3 that follow this are great too so it's hard for me to recommend which one to get. Basically pick one of the last 4 releases and I'd be suprised if you were let down.
