This
has to be one of the biggest disappointments so far this year. Sure Floor
Jansen continues to impress with her wonderful voice, and Sander
Gommans' growling and grunts gives their sound a nice contrast to her.
They continue with their trusted sound people know from their earlier
albums, and the whole band delivers a solid performance on this album.
And the production is also good, so all the basics are in place for
After Forever.
But
most the songs simply don't ignite; most of them are decent and
mediocre, only a few of them are OK - "Come" and "Free
of Doubt" - and one song shows just how great it could have been...
"Only Everything" is an excellent display of intelligent,
well played music. Next please... Recommended tracks: Only "Only Everything"
stands out... |
