 My judgment is extremely positive, especially thanks to the decadent and dark atmospheres that this CD knows how to deliver.

 Dive into Tristania's Beyond The Veil and experience one of gothic metal's finest masterpieces today!

 What reigns is personality, that of a group that has finally decided to stick its head out and make its mark in this overused genre.

 Dive into Gorillaz's Demon Days and explore Damon Albarn’s playful musical experiment today!

 DT 'demonstrates they don’t need to prove' to anyone their technical prowess.

 Discover the rich layers and refined style of Dream Theater's Octavarium—listen now and experience a prog masterpiece.

 Self-defined by the band as "Chaos Metal", SYL’s musical proposal is the most original, crazy, and energetic that currently exists in the now saturated extreme scene.

 There are few bands like Strapping Young Lad, and even fewer like Devin Townsend, the "Frank Zappa of metal," the living proof that heavy metal is not just music for semi-angry adolescents with blinders on.

 An atypical character is Necro, and he plays on this, he’s well aware in my opinion of saying outrageous bullshit, but he (relatively) sells and couldn’t give a damn.

 He never strays from established rules, he knows what he wants to produce and being a producer (in rap terms) - lyricist - producer (in the way we all understand) everything he does follows a precise line and there is never anything out of place.

 Wilderness has positively surprised me for the strongly melancholic character that emerges from its songs and for the quality of the arrangements.

 Far from being a masterpiece, Wilderness is nonetheless a pleasant album and I recommend it ... to those who, like me, love acoustic and melancholic sounds.

 Listen to Archer Prewitt's Wilderness and explore this soulful acoustic journey today!

 "A rage that is never blind, but infused with cynical sarcasm that makes this work the most ferocious and entertaining rotten fruit ever born from the punk scene."

 "The Dead Kennedys are like a hyena laughing at you with its mouth wide open and drooling; or perhaps it’s showing you its fangs?"

 Listen to Endtyme and experience Cathedral's powerful return to doom metal greatness.

 They do not play gothic metal: the mistake arises from the fact that After Forever has a female vocalist and a dark atmosphere.

 In my opinion, they are the only true heirs of Nightwish, not for genre and atmospheres but surely for class and talent.

 Explore After Forever's 'Decipher' now and experience a dynamic journey in dark symphonic metal!
