3.0 out of 5 stars
Great for fans of Goth,
By jeffrey carlisle (Utah) - See all my reviews
This review is from: La Reveuse (Audio CD)
This album features a lovely deep voice mixed with the beautiful vocals of Nancy Keegan. The music ranges from anywhere from ethereal to dark and melodic. A great find for most fans of goth music with a taste for the unusual.
4.0 out of 5 stars
Good balance between 80's goth rock and darkwave romance,

"La Reveuse." I took French in college, but I have no clue what that means. It's a good album, in any case. Christopher David's voice is a smooth mix of Peter Murphy and Wayne Hussey. Not to say Judith is derivative - just that in any artist's work, the influences bleed through the canvas.The lyrics are poetic, but you can follow the story in each song. "As Lovers Fall" opens the album with a good balance of 80's gothic rock and darkwave romanticism, and sets the tone for the rest of the disc. Musically, Judith has a lot in common with New York legends Requiem in White (later, Mors Syphilitca). This only makes sense, since Christopher was in RIW. Judith leans towards glam on the punk/glam meter for goth music. Most of their songs are dancefloor-friendly, but they avoid the monotony that marks some goth bands who set out to write dancefloor anthems. The songs never overpower the vocals, and Nancy Keegan provides great harmonies on four tracks. "Arise," "Morningstar" and "Silhouette" stand out as the rockers, with the guitar turned up. "Autre Evenfall" sounds like something out of "Lawrence of Arabia." "La Reveuse" is just as good an intro to Judith as their debut, "Fohn." If you like either one, you'll enjoy the other.

Judith's long awaited second full-length is a testament to the idea that the best things come to those who wait. Fine-tuned production and an enigmatic symbolism make their mark on each of these songs, while the addition of crisp acoustic guitar, live drums, and ethereal female backing vocals herald a turning point in Judith's sound.
