| review by Salvo "Lovedeath77" Russo | ||

Lacrimosa are back!!!!It is not easy to listen
to Lacrimosa's sound.....their music is the True Gothic metal in which
the arrangements take the structure from Classic
Music. There's not metal in their compositions but there's much poetry....melancholy,
and deepness.
Singer's voice seems to tell the music that is full of
arrangements ...and is well produced. I'ts difficult to describe the
complexity of these compositions;
Churchmusic in the first song that is something wonderful in which
the atmosphere is filled by chorus ....The second track Durch
Nacht und Flut is something different but i love this
song...composed with too much care, in which the melody rules the song
but the arrangements are full of classic parts....congratulations!!!!!!
Sacrifice is churcmusic
but some parts remind me the 70's music.....another wonderful idea..and
the chorus gives a particular touch to this song.
In Apart we've the
pleasure to listen Anne 's voice and it's wonderful.......what a
beautiful voice!!!!!!The music is very sad and it's arranged in a
perfect way; guitars are not always present but the compostion are fill
of poetry music........and it's well in this way...this is their
personal sound!
A note of disappointment regarding the track
no.5 "Ein Hauch von Menschlichkeit
"that is a little bit boring ...better said, more tha a little bit
for me !!!...while "Malina" gets
a particoular arrangement but the melody is not at the top .
Die Schreie sind verstummt -
Requiem für drei Gamben und Klavier closes this cd....in the
best way..and i may say that this is a very good album for this storic
band.
If you like classic music, churchmusic, and Gothic, Baroque.etc.....ok...this
album is perfect ,this is not an album for Metal defenders or New Gothic
Metal fans(To/ Die /For, Sentenced ,ecc...).
