Perfect Cd almost 
bit mellow for deftones fans. Hard rock to the full None Moving, relaxing, varied, Builds upon its predecessor while adding new elements None well written, well executed, moving, varied, dramatic and enjoyable None Gets stuck in your head Gets stuck in your headWaiting For The Floods - Armoury Show
Enjoyable post-punk and proto-gothic, and other terms I'm clearly making up. Lacks individuality.
So Red The Rose - Arcadia
Experimental and atmospheric, but retains a pop sensibility. The softer songs sound rather similar.
New Age Of Earth - Ashra
Retro ambience for Tangerine Dream fans. Not up to the standards of its competitors, a disappointing change of direction.
Hed Kandi - The Mix 2008
Dance & Electronic - House & Garage - 2007
End Of The Weakness - Archeon
High quality debut replicating the Children of Bodom sound. Not as good as the obvious influences.
Beyond The Dark - Ancara
Nice atmosphere and high production values. Far too short, lacking in intensity and overly ballad-based.
Artimus Pyledriver - Artimus Pyle
Another entertaining sludge album. The same as all the rest.
Angels In America - Thomas Newman - Soundtrack
A perfect blend of traditionality with off-beat modernism Fractured presentation with a couple of disruptive source songs
All Together Now - Argent
Mix of styles, as long as you're fond of organ rock. Inconsistent.
A Long March - As I Lay Dying
Previously rare material made available. It's unrefined, unimpressive metalcore.
