Metal masters Dark Tranquillity's latest, once again they prove that they're better than
everybody else. The evolution started on "Projector" has taken a new turn, here they've
dropped the death metal side of theirs totally, only the growling vocals are left.
They actually sound a bit like Paradise Lost did on their best work ("Draconian times"),
but still they have their own special sound (like always), absolutely brilliant melodic
metal, Stanne does his growling on this one I thought he was gonna go totally clean this
time after Projector but he only does that on one track. But, like always before he's one
of the best death metal singers out there so no one complains.
It's a question if this is the best metal record ever from Sweden, buy this now for gods
sake!!! "Clayman" *BAH!* I have that one too but I never got what's so special about it.
No forget about In Flames and get this it will knock you down I promise.
