Here
my review!
1.
"Here Come the Vultures"
I
like the entrance, is very strong these guitar riffs give the characteristic
touch of this new album, which really impressed us from the beginning with
dense guitars, and a heavy battery, the passage of the song is average and the
lovely voice Charlotte! That i say! Clear voice with excellent tone and rhythm
between the song and his voice.
2.
"Your Body Is a Battleground" (with Marco Hietala)
A
faster song, with more presence in excellent heavy rhythm guitars, with the
voice of Marco gives you more strength, duo mark / Charlotte gives voice in
terms of both a good harmony vocals are clean, I like the step between guitars
/ voice and drums make the song sound more heavy!
3.
"Stardust"
Undoubtedly
it is the song disc icon, excellent more Rockera melodic relaxed entrance where
we can hear the voice of Charlotte with strengths in the track, in fact it is
more catchy song, the guitars and drums faster, time song voice.
4.
"My Masquerade"
A
quick cool song and more dense Rocker song sound between guitar riffs!
Harmonious with excellent combination of sound and rhythm of voice, the voice
of Charlotte light and clean!
5. "Tell
Me, Mechanist" (with George Oosthoek)
I
like the entrance, a flashy keyboard, guitars present with the same speed and rhythm
heavy sound, the powerful voice of George is always awesome, give it a heavier
feel to the song and voice combined a touch of Charlotte malicious
6.
"Sing to Me" (with Marco Hietala)
Check
sublime voice, then those guitars with the same heavy beat, regular speed, the
voice of Charlotte without losing power! Marco's voice gives a hard and similar
in rhythm to the second song in sound and style, with a greater presence in the
voice of Charlotte.
7.
"Army of Dolls"
Good
song, more melodic style similar to previous yes and sound between heavy and
rhythmic, forceful voice of Charlotte, in fact at greater length in time and
the track
8.
"Lullaby"
Melodic
and heavy song, with rhythm and sound like some previous tracks similar times,
in excellent voice, without loss of speed or power, also more presence!
9.
"The Tragedy of the Commons" (with Alissa White-Gluz)
A
heavy song, compared to some of this album, I like the pace of dense guitars
combining the powerful voice of Alissa! In fact the style of this excellent
song is similar to the 5-song, just a bit of combination style vocals, voice
clean and lightweight Charlotte makes good combination with this style of
vocals! Track speed is intermediate.

10.
"Scarlet"
A
very subtle ballad, emotive, piano excellent company and again we hear the
voice of Charlotte with clarity, smooth with a clear background.
11.
"Do not Let Go"
A
catchy and rhythmic song! Melodic guitars with good presence, not being so
heavy but with a powerful sound and presence, Charlotte's voice remained soft
lightly blunt!
12.
"My Masquerade (Live from Haarlem)"
13.
"April Rain (Live from Haarlem)" April Rain Album
14.
"Go Away (Live from Haarlem)" April Rain Album
15
". Sever (Live from Haarlem)" excellent song live with guttural line,
heavy guitars and
intermediate
melodic rhythms with a chorus that accompanies the beautiful voice of Charlotte!
16.
"Stay Forever (Live from Haarlem)" April Rain Album
17.
"Sing to Me (Orchestra Version)"
18.
"Your Body Is a Battleground (Orchestra Version)"
My
recommendation
It's heavier than the previous record, for me I think this album has been
one of the best of the band, The Goth / Symphonic Metal style is more mature in
this great album, every one of his albums has evolved and style, has all the
songs are atmospheric inputs with a similar background, the disc is continuous,
Charlotte's voice is soft, melodic, clean and white which does not lose
forcefulness throughout the album, she has a classical training and jazz which
shows his perfect performance, controlled in time and tone, she has the most
demanding as other symphonic bands / Goth metal voice. But this album makes a
perfect combination with their voices and showing great skill especially in the
ballad'' Scarlet''.
The
dominant style on this album is the heaviness of the guitar riffs and keyboards
predominantly a skill with a battery present, I can not make comparisons as
other reviews which this record or this song seems like the Delain's particular
style, with many influences from other genres or other groups within the scene,
the orchestral songs'' Sing to me'' and'' Your Body is a Battleground'' give it
that touch of Symphony Soundtrack very good guy!
+ The Good
It is a well structured album musically is continuous, with a rhythm and speed
moderate constant, strong and catchy songs, with soft and later heavy entries,
which clearly shows your style, do not change the style of some songs in the
songs live refer to April Rain which show three representative songs, more the
orchestral versions.
-The Bad
Is
that some songs are similar in musical style and good wish it had more songs
from this production
Originality and Creativity
The
combinations of voices is creative, which shows the ability and as the voice of
our friend Charlotte mates! In originality is regular, there are some
similarities in lyrical concept of the album and I like it, I agree!
Technique
Good
handling of instruments throughout the album, I hear forcefully displaying and
transmitting what our beautiful friend Charlotte plays with their guitars,
drums and keyboard electronics
Vocal: Soprano type light on the scale,
good vocal technique to acute moderate-high
remains constant throughout the album, the guttural side are perfect, give it a
touch of evil and heavy songs, showing how that fits any type of voice, type
Power with voices like Marco! O Death / Clean type Alissa and George Oosthoek
Cover Art: striking, mysterious and showing
Charlotte's face with an expression between the mystical and life, tells us
what the theme of the album is about.
Score
8.8/10
