    Rating:
    Theatre Of Tragedy's second album, similar in style to the self-titled debut but much better production. Liv Kristine sings perhaps even better here and on this one they used string arrangements (violin section) to get the right feeling, and it works fine for me.
    This album is by many considered as the best TOT album and a masterpiece, I dunno really I think something's still missing. Don't be afraid to buy this though, great album I assure that it won't disappoint you.
