This isn't an enthralling album, but it has its moments. After the customary keyboard intro, 'Lord of Lies' sets the more upbeat and commercial tone, then 'Away' finds the most satisfying balance between heaviness and melody, darkness and light that the rest of the album fails to achieve in the same way.

Crematory's gothic tendencies come to the fore in their fifth album, hinted at with a Sisters of Mercy cover and expanded on to overtake their death/doom metal origins altogether, the growled vocals being the only real holdover from the early days.

Talented electronic industrial performance. Rock roots all but absent.

catchy and enjoyable, uncomplicated and entertaining songs, good guitars/keyboards Nothing hugely original, not for those with an aversion to cheese

Very powerful, tight and fast with intense vocals Production isn't great, a little samey in places

ONE STEP CLOSER I LOVE THIS TOWN

Fantastic vocals, excellent songwriting and execution, loads of atmosphere, great lyrics Vocals might be offputting to some

Great value for money 4 cds and dvd set. None

Crematory - Crematory
Return of doom metal. Standing still.

From The 13th Sun - Candlemass
A very different sound with great use of effects. This is... this is just Black Sabbath, isn't it? But ever-so-slightly rearranged?

Buried Alive - Batmobile
A commercial release of old demos and rare live material for the fan who has to have everything. Inferior sound quality and some bad experiments, but at least they're trying.

Chapter Six - Candlemass
Still strong with a new singer and new direction. Early tracks seem disappointing by comparison.

Ancient Dreams - Candlemass
Continues the epic doom style, with a spectacular vocal performance throughout. Songs are starting to sound the same.

Live (At The Out The Dark Festivals) - Crematory
Songs benefit from the live energy and raw performance. Frequent interludes are distracting.

Blasts From The Past - Batmobile
Generous serving of songs. No new material, and a lot of repetition.

The Best Of - Joy Division
A good introduction to the band Misses some less known classics
