A look into the "Mirrorworlds", February 17, 2000
This review is from: Mirrorworlds (Audio CD)
This band has got to be one of the very best to come from Sweden. Daniel Erlandsson( brother of Adrian who has played drums with At the Gates, The Haunted, and Cradle of Filth) explores a new approach to his playing as well as the rest of the band. Mirrorworlds is slightly more relaxed, yet still chuck full of all the band's great writing styles and sound. The tracks almost take you to another place. If you are into melodic thrash/death stuff, man this is just for ya. Good luck trying to get a hold of it though, as it is very rare nowadays. Cheers........Danny Zink

Essential, December 19, 2004
In Flames-Whoracle
Opeth-Morningrise
Dark Tranquility-Skydancer Of Eternal Chaos and Night

Edge Of Sanity-Crimson
Children Of Bodom-Follow The Reaper
Dissection-Storm Of Lights Bane
Why did I just list all those albums? Well, those are all the Melodeath albums I've ever truly been awed by. Now Eucharist's Mirrorworlds can be added to that list. This is one of those albums that really has no weak link. The vocalist sounds like a more gutteral Anders Friden. The riffs are complex and obviously influenced by At The Gates, Dark Tranquility and In Flames and maybe a bit of Amorphis, Anathema and Katatonia as well. Daniel Erglannson, who plays for a handful of bands and is known for his precision and speed, handles the percussion on this album. Overall, if your into Swedish Death Metal you'll love this album.

Wow, it's true, this WAS underrated..., September 4, 2001
This review is from: Mirrorworlds (Audio CD)
well, it's true what the other reviewers say. This was really a great album, althouh not quite up to Jester Race or Slaughter Of The Soul calibre, it is an essential disc. Quite a different feel than most melodic death metal bands, this is much more depressing at parts and you can really feel it. If you're feeling down and thinking of suicide, don't listen to the track Dissolving... it mught push you over the edge! really a great disc, don't knwo why it didn't become a classic. I want another disc from this band! the one before, A Velvet Creation isn't as good and the production really kills it as well.
