Notable Quotes

❝ Among these are surely the legendary Celestial Season, a group that, together with The Gathering, represented the Dutch response to the gothic sound coming from the land of Albion.

❝ Solar Lovers remains the best and, if you will, the most complete from a compositional standpoint.

❝ With this band, I don't think there are any half measures—you will either love them or hate them, but they certainly won't leave you indifferent. Give them at least a listen. They Deserve It.
