Coupled with the prominence of keyboards, both in a spacey tone and less agreeable Hammond organs that don't so much enhance the mood as shatter it, this is atmospheric and relatively soothing melodic death metal that avoids most of the pitfalls of the genre.

Great consistency not many really
The Eat Up - Skrein
Superb production, great raps, great album. None for me.
Enchanted - Usa - Stevie Nicks
Some enchantments, some remixes, gorgeous photos and inlay design book Can be expensive, some songs quite disappointing and not all B sides/remixes included.
Sleepers - Rapper Big Pooh
Hip-Hop & Rap - Gangsta & Hardcore - 2005
London Undersound - Nitin Sawhney
Beautiful music from a creative man and his friends. None.
Revolutions Per Minute - Rise Against
Heavy, fast, loud, good songs Some songs just aren't up to scratch compared to the others
The Sufferer & The Witness - Rise Against
Amazing songs - whether they are fast, heavy Acoustic song in the middle kills the flow of the album
Black Ballads - November Coming Fire
Goth - 2004
The Unraveling - Rise Against
Heavy, fast songs, but also balanced nicely with some slower stuff, but never getting too slow Backing vocals are irritating in places, some songs are too short to do them justice.
Siren Song Of The Counter Culture - Rise Against
Powerful Lyrics, Great riffs, basslines and drums Some themes conveyed in lyrics may not be understood by a younger audience
