3.0 out of 5 stars closer to the pain, July 31, 2000

By	Miki and Marina (Omsk, Russia) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Sundown (Audio CD)

I would not be surprised if this album had a title "Black Vanity, part II" since it has a sound similar to the first album's , though they are still different. "Elysia" is a good song, catchy, mensurable and emotional, but "Closer to the pain" is tuneless. I had never heard before that Mathias Lodmalm can only sing "hey, hey, it's a last transmission, yeah" the whole song, third is also monotonous, the same as "Primal" where lyrics contain only one word. And also it is usually there that one riff repeats itself a hundred times during one song. Of course, album has positive moments as well, and "Sundown" is the best song of all day long. "Ophidian" and "The embrace" are great , too, deep and emotional. I gave this album three stars because it has plenty of weak songs and I still prefer two previous albums "Black Vanity" and "Godless Beauty" a lot more.

This CD is a wonderful representation of many emotions and feelings. It brings out into the open what many people only think about and make the listener actually FEEL.

3.0 out of 5 stars worthwhile Euro-metal, March 11, 2000

Like many Swedish bands of the 90s, Cemetary started out death then got more melodic and gothic. By the time of this album, they were full-on into gothic mode. These simple metal grooves are powered by choppy power chords, gothic keyboards, and Maidenish leads. Apocalyptic lyrics are barked out in a semi-melodic gruff voice. Good, solid, straightforward metal, the kind that only seems to get made by European bands these days.
