I'd venture to say this album has the heart of a post metal release without being post metal at all. Kind of reminds me of a blend of "Night is the New Day" era Katatonia if they had a more expressive vocalist and diverse musical pallet. Recommend checking out "I'm Not There" at least. It's just too bad the entire album isn't like them. Having said that, the final two songs are actually really good. It's an electronic-edged dream pop album that is enjoyable, but nothing special. This one still isn't mind blowing, but it's good. I don't remember her previous releases, but based on my ratings, I was not too impressed. She brings more of a pop element into the music than Charlotte did, and that took a little getting used to, but overall this is just as good as anything they've done since April Rain (which is still their peak). I guess that shouldn't be a surprise since the only one left is the main songwriter. Also, Argent Justice is a total clusterfuck and gets skipped more often than not.Įvery member but the keyboardist is gone, but Delain doesn't miss a beat. What keeps me coming back is the sinister ambience they channel through the massive amount of chugs.

It's all in French, so that might be an issue for some. The music is fairly unique on its own, but the female vocals kind of put this album in its own niche. I've never heard their other albums, but this one is a seamless blend of Djent, progressive metal, goth metal (similar to Lacuna Coil), and industrial metal. The first half is just fun bouncy alternative/pop, and the second half reminds me a lot of Eisley (a band I love).

Kind of has a stripped down Yellowcard feel.Įasily my favorite Paramore album. Tears of a fallen hero Save us from ourselvesĭecent alternative punk. Lovesliescrushing Avianium (Microphona Magnetica) Sort by: Rating | Release Date | Rating Date | Name The Abbey Word of Sin
