While the new prog direction will doubtless annoy less open-minded fans of the band's earlier material (I guess that includes me, then), their pop transformation is still incomplete and this album boasts some of the band's finest material, albeit in a smaller proportion than so...more |

Having proved their death/doom metal credentials with 'Tales from the Thousand Lakes,' Finland's Amorphis boldly (and questionably) opted for a rather drastic change of pace over the course of their subsequent albums, at its most effective in the first offering of their new style, 'Elegy.' Rather than the epic folk tales of the Kalevala that had worked so well for the band in the past, inspiration this time turns to the poems of the Kanteletar, one of the ingredients for a potentially more moving and emotionally resonant album, and a promise that 'Elegy' delivers on to some extent.

Nice modern prog, with some interesting instruments. 
Hardly any trace of metal or folk for fans of earlier albums. Classic melodic death metal with a (slight) Finnish twist. Lead guitars are derivative of other bands on occasion, and production job is fairly poor. One of the defining albums of melodic death metal, taking a gloomier and less hostile approach. Some songs lack in variety, and the last one is questionable. Superb live versions of metallica classics with a diffrence Little bit too much Orchestra sometimes, not often though 2'cds Good track selection, unusally for EMI If you're not already a fan, you may not enjoy itWant Two - Rufus Wainwright

Rufus Wainwright - Rufus Wainwright
The orchestration is so so lush, his voice is very impressive A couple tracks simply go nowhere, The picture of Rufus in the sleeve with Mutton Chops is ghastly!

Live At Carnegie Hall - Rufus Wainwright
A great singer, fantastic songs, a brilliant and funny concert Occasional gaffes like forgetting the words (but come on, its live!)
Venus Doom: Special Edition - HIM
New darker style is impressive. Each song has its own uniqueness. None for me, but some may view it as samey.
Want One - Rufus Wainwright
Truly unique voice and musical style The album lacks a little focus in terms of subjects
El Angel Caido - Avalanch
The peak of Avalanch's melodic/prog/power style, with interesting experiments. Some songs still seem like filler, especially by comparison to the strong closing material.
Dark Light - HIM
None Generally weak
Always - Gabrielle
