This premise should not alarm you: if it's true that the band has become a bit softened and commercialized (a word I use with a bit of disgust, but it serves to convey the idea), the quality of the album is all in all more than sufficient (in school it would be a C+), certainly better than the subsequent albums.

Ten years after the release of this good effort, it’s sad to see another excellent band relegated to the status of a mere sideshow in the mainstream gothic scenes, lost in the chaos of clichés created by the likes of Him, To/Die/For, and Entwine (and whoever else), a group that preferred to see throngs of screaming teenage girls infatuated by the beauty of the singer at their concerts (who, as we know, guarantee a higher rate of visibility compared to the silent yet sincere devotion of doomsters) than listeners in love with their innocent and bucolic poetry, enchanted by a world of sublime notes, masterfully recreated by Oliver and company until the release of "Memorandum", but then brutally traded for instant success, easily digestible melodies, and winks at the base Finnish love metal scene.
