Standard symphonic black metal with a more melodic flair. No songs really stand out.

Raising Fear - Armored Saint
Perfection of the band's style, with great guitars and vocals and some timeless classics. Songs tend towards over-repetition, and end of the album is less noticeable.

Pristine In Bondage - Amaran
Powerful, good ol' fashioned metal. With a woman. Occasionally uninspired.

Pentecost III - Anathema
Unparalleled gloom, and a long-awaited resurrection of these vital releases. May lead to suicidal tendencies or manic depression. Okay for pregnant women though.

Per Un Pugno Di Dollari (A Fistful Of Dollars) - Ennio Morricone - Soundtrack
A classic Morricone effort that contains all the trademarks that made him popular Suspenseful music not as interesting and a certain stylishness still finding its place

If The Ocean Gets Rough - Willy Mason
deep, great voice, good lyrics I like his first album better

Ravishing Beauty - Avec Tristesse
Mix of gothic metal and symphonic black metal that sounds distinctive. Overly repetitive, too short and lacking coherence.
