Epic goth metal with some heavy '70s progressive elements (Rick Wakeman-style keyboards, occasional interludes of softer, folk-like melodies, some spoken word passages that sound like the Moody Blues played at 16 rpm -- that sort of thing), the debut album by Sweden's Draconian is much better than many similar albums in this style. The seven-person band has a strong sense of both pacing and dynamics, which means that these eight lengthy tracks never bog down in repetitive riffing; the nearly 13-minute opener, "The Cry of Silence," manages to hold the listener's attention throughout, thanks to smartly deployed shifts in arrangement and tempo. Female singer Lisa Johannson is a perfect complement to her male counterpart, Anders Jacobsson, her warm mezzo-soprano tone adding a more interesting tonal shade than the usual faceless semi-operatic squealer who populates these bands. (Check out her glorious, soaring interludes on "Silent Winter" in particular.) Happily, Jacobsson's booming, dramatic voice only rarely delves into the Cookie Monster clichés of Scandinavian metal, making him a better than average singer for the style as well, and the band as a whole does an excellent job of varying its attack. ~ Stewart Mason

4 stars Doom metal at a glance
If you like Doom metal like Moonspell you will enjoy this master piece just added the beautiful female voice to the background to make more contrast, good album I recommend to every doom metal fan!

5 stars Fabuloso
Una banda nueva dentro del Doom Metal, simplemente de lo mejor que hay hasta el momento, nos hace recordar a grandes bandas como theater of tragedy o After Forever.

5 stars A goth masterwork...
and an extremely rare find from this elusive foreign band (elusive meaning mysterious and not often seen...at least not in America, anyway). There is a very dark demeanor prevalent in their music and I find the lyrics to be quite profound and even beautiful, in their way. The female vocalist has a beautiful voice and it is a perfect foil to the growling vocals, also heard in many, if not all of these tracks. The craftsmanship is impecable, I might add. On personal note, I think that Draconian is perhaps the finest goth metal unit I've had the distinct pleasure of hearing, yet.

Legacy is Shadow Gallery's fourth disc, and certainly one of their best. Those who say Shadow Gallery is prog metal rather than progressive rock should really give this disc a listen. Certainly there are plenty of metal influences, but there are also lots of moments that are much more closely tied to classic progressive rock. The songwriting on this disc is impeccable, as are both the performances and the production. The music ranges from metallic stylings to more sedate elements to powerful prog wanderings. The final cut on the CD is a 34-minute epic that will definitely keep you on your ...

Draconian Burning Halo CD  (2006)

Where Lovers Mourn CD music
CD $14.65  4 stars Audio Samples
By 2006, goth/death/doom ensemble Draconian had two critically acclaimed albums under their metal-studded belts, and nearly a dozen years of experience overall (most of it spent shopping demo after demo to record companies in the late '90s), but they weren't quite ready to produce an entire album's worth of new songs. So the Swedish septet decided to make a small compromise with their next release for Napalm Records, The Burning Halo, by recording three brand new tracks, re-recording three more from their 1999 demo, The Closed Eyes of Paradise, and rounding everything out with a pair of covers. Luckily, the resulting patchwork still made for a very convincing, nearly seamless proper album, thanks to the band's deep stores of inspiration, super-sized song-lengths, and the quality of their ...

Was sorry to hear of the death of singer RAYBEEZ in September (of some kind of illness, not sure which).

He always practiced what ...

"Suicide Note Pt. I" was nominated for a 1997 Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance. Pantera's fourth major-label album is as dementedly metallic as anything the band has done. Over the years, this band has built a massive following with its adroit combination of guitar virtuosity that rivals Metallica's and an attitude as dark as Nine Inch Nails'. Philip Anselmo's vocals for THE GREAT SOUTHERN TRENDKILL were recorded at Trent Reznor's Nothing Studios, and they are positively demonic. They perfectly complement Dimebag Darrell's thunderous and dexterous guitar work. Vinnie Paul's ferocious, double-kick drumming is the final garnish on Pantera's infernal sound. Pantera may be the definitive modern metal band. Thankfully, Pantera has stopped ...
