Your Review:

That's the biggest dissapointment for me in last year. CD is boring and dull as ditch-water. I advise you against this album if you like "Enter" and "The Dance".

Review by: Adon



Don't listen to him. This album is a great one.

Review by: Hypnos



For me, this is also one of the weakest things I ever heard!!! This is what I really call a disapointment, nothing worse than this! I like the Enter and The Dance, but this is an absolute horrible album. Come back with the grunts, and take away those 'happy-radio friendly' guitar shit!!

Review by: Flix

Well, i Love Enter, and The Dance too, and this album is another masterpiece, maybe u both dont like it because u did not listen to it enough, just listened a time and go like "Uh yuck, shit shit, and shut it down" Well sorry, Nope this album is a real masterpiece and it is a really great work, and i like it very much and i will buy it original too because it is a masterpiece..

The album itself is quite good, very good recording quality and intens compositions. The vocals of Sharon are breathtaking and show her to be an excellent studio-singer. But compared to the previous demo and cd, this is indeed a more pop-like and -sorry to say so- dissapointing sound. Brief, it's a great album, and if you really love this, you should get into the 1st works of this band.

Review by: Cratos



I must agree with somepeople THIS IS A MASTER PIECE!
I like Enter and the Dance too, and I think they just have improved theirselves!
I really like the style of Within Temptation but I don't think they changed, I just think they try diffrent styles and I like it!
And as far as I know, Robberts grunts are not coming back soon.
They try to stick with the more melodic style and their is no place for grunts then.
But I just love Sharons voice and that one is staying ;)
I would like to give this CD a 10!!!!

Review by: Christfire



C'mon people this discussion is plain stupid. Some love this album and some hate it and the result is looking like the album was average. Which definitely isn't! It's great!!! :-) Sorry, grunt-lovers, but for grunts you can go listen to pig farm ;-D
No, just kidding, still, the album is lame for grunt-loving people and great for those, who can live without them. That's it. You can disagree, you can protest against it, but that's all you can do with the fact the album is splendid. All the post containing (or consisting of, heh) words like "fucking", "shit" and "crap" are egoistic and thus useless. And looking through them i see it's just the grunt-boosters who post this angry and rude comments, which is one more reason for me not to take them seriously. Calm down, kids, go play with your friends, they'll be happy to hear "fucking", "shit" and "crap" from you, but please, don't come back here, where opinions and thoughts should be shared in much more cultivated way.
BYE
and btw: Mother Earth rocks!!!

Review by: Gorthaur



Gorthaur you said it man!Well I think like Anathema, Paradise Lost and The Gathering these guys have changed their style a lot and so what?????Do we have to make a band play a syle that they got sick of???Well if a band plays a style just to give pleasure to the fans they sure will end up!I think we have to respect the changes of a band if we really like them and in the case of WT they have improved they have become a "diffrent band", not a classical doom/gothic metal band like many others. Well I think this time they are not "just another band"!!!!!

Review by: Decipher



Well, maybe I'm a morron, but sometimes we have to listen to something more deeply, Within Temptation always made great sound, and it isn't this time they're going down. This is and will always be a great album, with or without grunts...
Some of you may think that they've lost some of the essence of the previous albums, well true, but so what? they've gain another kind of essence... wich is surrelly great.. in here they've inserted a little bit more of folk elements, wich sounds awsome.
I think that we have to respect or should know the ways that a band want to follow, and so... they don't have to be pleasent for all, so leave your "fucks" at home.. they're not surelly welcome here..
I've been listening for years essencially to black metal, look at me, writing some words about a shitty gothic metal
band for some of you.. though I would like to say, that WT rules, and so other gothic metal bands do... not only grunts or screams are great. So I think that in music we've to be a little bit more mature...

Review by: Tenebrae



change can be good, people. for every band that changes their sound, there are a thousand more that sound just like they used to. as for this, this is quite possibly the most beautiful piece of music i've ever heard. i'm not even going to try to put it into words. listen for yourself, and keep an open mind.

Review by: msatan81



Probably the most beautiful album i've ever heard. People who say this album is a bad album means they haven't heard it. This is MUSIC.
I Like WT so much, and I love this Master Piece.

Review by: Elv



Simply the most beautiful music you can listen to.
Only classical composers can make a music so touching and emotive, and few chosen. No speed, no brutality, only melody and feeling.
One of my favorites in its style of all times.

Review by: DeathGrinder



This album, what will always be special for me because it led me into metal, is a MASTERPIECE! It's the best album of Within Temptation. When I first heard Mother Earth (the song itself) I was fully overblown and I was in heaven. This song is in my top 3 of best songs EVER created by a human being, or a group of human beings. I don't have words for it. It is... I don't know... breathtaking... Aaahh. The rest of this album is also very beautiful. Obviously a 100 out of 100. I like all the songs, albums, clips etc. that WT have ever made!
