Mass Music Review Average Rating: (4.8 out of 5 stars)  Fast, convenient Service
I was very impressed with the convenience of ordering from CD Universe and
the speed with which it was delivered to a USA destination.
CD Universe kept me informed as to the progress of my order every step of the way. I didn't have to make any follow up contacts because they did it all for me, with an email to confirm my order and one to let me know that it had been shipped, all within a couple of days. It doesn't get much better. Thank you CD Universe for making my purchase a pleasure.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No Brilliant!!
The eerie, chanting music of ERA is truly unique. Unlike most music today which suffers overkill, ERA is a breath of fresh air. A drive in the mountains listening to ERA is all one needs to recharge your soul!!

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No Medival chant meets Modern music
Era was introduced to me by a world traveled friend. They blend different musical styles and yet it works beautifully together. Reminiscent of chant heard by Enigma. It speaks to your soul and hearkens back to earlier days of wine and roses...

Mass music CDs
$13.25
The 2001 debut of German electronic outfit Lesiem is much more dark and ominous than fans of Enigma and Deep Forest may expect, which only means that teenage goths and their moms may finally have something to agree on when it comes to picking music for long car rides. The Latin-singing male chorus can sound as frightening as Rammstein on an OMEN soundtrack one moment, and as transcendent as Handel's MESSIAH in the next, while Ferenc Snetberger wails on electric guitar in WALL-era Pink Floyd mode, and Alex "89" Wende provides the dance loops and orchestral thunder with his keyboard work.
One of the highlights of MYSTIC SPIRIT VOICES is "Fundamentum" with its crashing tympanis, strings, and chanting at its most ominous and dark. Electric guitar circles over the voices on the impassioned "Vivere," while "Ave Fortuna" ends the record with a more straightforward Gregorian chant. Moments of rock burble forth from the ceremonial reverence and fiery ancient imaginings; "Occultum" features a singer belting out English lyrics in 1980s hard-rock style; "Floreat" has a British voice narrating a tale of a time when "the world was shadows" ...

Aphelion is the point where a planet or any celestial body is furthest from the sun. While this must be pretty dark place, Amethystium breathes light into the shadows. Amethystium is Oystein Ramfjord, a Norwegian composer who shapes elements of electronica and darkwave, evoking classic Tangerine Dream and Kitaro. This ...
| | Enigma Voyageur (Deluxe) CD (2003) Special Package
Mass album
$11.55 
In 1991, if any musical artist seemed a candidate for one-hit wonder status, it was Enigma. Not that "Sadeness Part 1" displayed any lack for talent, but the hit was certainly unusual. Worthy of his nom du disc, Michael Cretu released the bizarre, sexually charged Gregorian chant-driven New Age dance song under veils of mystery. Journalists speculated about his identity, as the song ignited controversy in country after country, topping the charts in most of them and going into top 5 in the United States.
Enigma has proven to be enduring and deservedly so, as his odd hybrid ...
| | Lesiem Auracle CD (2004)
Mass CD music
$13.29
Each Lesiem album invites the listener to ask again the age-old question: what exactly is the point of writing pop music lyrics in Latin and having them sung in unison by a choir as if they were Gregorian chant? The liner notes to the latest Lesiem album offer one possible explanation: this music "reveals a magical message for these times. It speaks to the hearts of humanity in an age where legends inspire and muses seek to enlighten minds while passing a torch of spiritual light to fellow travelers across the globe." A less charitable interpretation might be that writing Latin lyrics ...

| | Explosion Black Tape CD (2004)
Mass music CDs
$36.09
Boston's Explosion make the major-label leap with Black Tape, but their decision to leave the independent ranks hasn't diluted their exuberantly revivalist sound. Recording Tape with helmer Jason Carmer at a remote outpost of Idaho, the quintet triangulates the Social D streets of Los Angeles with the urgency of the D.C. hardcore tradition, and runs it all through the 1977-begging street punk of Boston's proud neighborhoods. There's more clarity in this approach than the tack taken by some of the Explosion's peers, who blend the rawness of punk with somewhat incongruous elements (elaborate string sections, say, or hip-hop beats). Instead of blowing up their sound, the Explosion have constricted further the already economic playing of their Jade Tree Records past. Black Tape concentrates on 12 songs with righteous vocal melodies and an array of guitar tones that recall 1993 (think Jawbreaker's 24 Hour Revenge Therapy) ...

Formed in the winter of 2005, BURIAL RITUAL is a unique blend of old school death metal, black metal, and thrash that few in their home state of Wisconsin have attempted in recent years. With a desire to produce heavy music that listeners of all metal genres can appreciate, BURIAL RITUAL's sound has evolved heavily over the years from a "death 'n' roll" style to darker, faster and more melodic. Their first EP release in 2007 entitled 'Last Rites' was but a taste of what the band was capable of, and after very positive reviews much anticipation began to build about what their next release would be like, and soon after 'Tower of Silence' was announced.BURIAL RITUAL's overall theme is focused on death, ...
