5.0 out of 5 stars The first album and the best!!, April 24, 2003

This was my firs dreadful cd, after that i got buried again, beyond the maze and the cycle, almost all their discography. And although I like every piece on the later material, there is no doubt that Estrangement is their very best!!!
Sea of Tears and Funeral procession are really, really great songs!!!! a must if you like gothic rock, and if you enjoy and like buried again, the cycle or beyond the maze... Estrangement is a must!!!!

While I am a big fan of Dreadful Shadows (And lead sing Sven in general), this is probably my least favorite of their works. "Dead Can Wait" and "Through The Mirror" are both really good song, however. All the songs are good on this CD, they just aren't 'The Cycle' or 'Buried Again' good. I suggest if you want to get this CD, you should probably buy it in the double pack, with the 'Homeless' E.P. That way you have songs like "Homeless", "Sea of Tears" (piano edit), "True Faith", "Paradise" and "Homeless" (Cyber Edit) to really even out the odd. It's still good. . Just not great.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best "unknown" albums..., May 20, 2003

I agree with the other review - this is their best work. The music is very vibrant and melodic at the same time. In addition to the Sea of Tears and Funeral Procession, Dead Can Wait is very catchy and quite fast, something they explored further on Buried Again but sort of went away from in their final stages just before their break-up (the Cycle). This is not to discourage you from getting their other albums, because they're all fantastic as well, it's just that this one is their best.
