Free Music Review: Gloom and Doom for everyone!
Hit: 4 Stars
I thoroughly enjoyed this album and am patiently awaiting "The Burning Halo". I am a particular fan of just straight out gloomy, depresssing, atmospheric metal. And this just seeps with it. As well, I am a fan of beutiful female goth vocals and Lisa Johansson has become one of my favorites. I love the lyrics, even though I am a Christian, they are poetically dark and I enjoy them despite them having "satanic" undertones. Ths music, to me, is amazing.
This is the breakdown on the tracks, in my opinion.
1. The Cry of Silence
A fairly big 12:42 long song that just drips with gloom. This helps introduce Draconian as a band with dark, low vocals and beutiful goth female vocals. I love this song.
2. Silent Winter
A bit of a letdown after the previous song but this has a intresting tune to it. Fast yet brooding. Yet again Lisa just shines in this song.
3. A Slumber Did My Spirit Seal
One of thier best overall, I heard this song on thier mp3 page and was hooked. This song, to me defines Draconian. The guitars, drums, vocals, everything is defined in this song. This is one of my favorite overall songs. Oh yeah, it drips with saddness.
4. The Solitude
A nice overall song but doesn't stand out much. I love the starting portion but it gets repetative as it continues. Even though, it's still a good song.
5. Reversion and Secessum
I don't listen to this song much. It's your basic Draconian song with gloom and doom. Lisa does offer some intresting vocals here though.
6. The Amaranth
A redone version of, without a doubt, thier best song. However, this version hardly compares with the orginal "The Amaranth". I still love this but I love the soft almost hazy quality of Lisa's voice. On the plus side, they kept the same lyrics and I love these lyrics.
7. Arkerousia
Oh god, if only this one a minute or two longer (2:32). This song is my favorite on this cd. Her voice just resounds with gracefullness. I love it. And the quiet and hushed quality of the song. Great song.
8. It Grieves My Heart
Starts strong and ends strong. This song is one of thier better ones. I really liked the song around 3:00. I liked how they changed it up and just switched to s different style. Very good.
The only reason why I didn't give this 5 stars is because it's 52:28 minutes long and that's because of the lenth of the first song. I owuld of have seen maybe 2 more songs there, maybe one in the likeness of Akherousia. However, I love this album. It's an amazing album.
Where Lovers Mourn Poster
Romantic gothic / doom metal emerges from Draconian's debut, Where Lovers Mourn, a release custom-tailored for bleak and lonely autumn nights. Melancholic female vocals harmoniously compliment heavy guitar riffs and expressive keyboard lines, with aggressive male vocals giving the tracks an added edge. Draconian perfectly balances heaviness and melody, and will charm fans of both the gothic and doom genre.Pop Music CDs
