Yearlist 2004:

[2004]


①		Deinonychus Insomnia Score: 10/10

My Dying Bride - Songs of Darkness, Words of Light Score: 10/10 After three years of waiting here's the new My Dying Bride cd again. I listened to The Dreadful Hours thousands of times already so I was really glad I could finally listen to something new again. The two things that really stand out on this album I think are the better use of keyboards (I guess they are finally using keys as a full instrument instead as a replacement-violin) and the improved clean vocals of Aaron. He still growls and screams a lot but the clean singing really impressed me here. On the downside, I just don't think there are enough 'masterpieces' on this album. The songs are good but the only one that really stands out is "A Doomed Lover". The songs "The Blue Lotus" and "And My Fury Stands Ready" are even quite boring I think. Maybe after I listen to it more I grow to like it more (as is usually the case with MDB cds) but right now I think the cd is good, but a bit below bride-standard. The artwork is a bit of a letdown too I think. I like the cover painting, but other than that there's not much to look at. I got the special edition of the cd which include a fridge-magnet and a poster, but both also just show the cover painting.			②

⑰	Aeternitas La Danse Macabre Score: 9.5/10

Sear Bliss - Glory and Perdition Score: 9.5/10 At first listen the latest release of Hungarian black metal band Sear Bliss sounds less like their previous release but more like the one before. The songs are shorter and faster again. Yet when listening more carefully, it becomes clear that 'Glory and Perdition' is a combination of all their previous albums. There is the atmosphere of Forsaken Symphony, the speed of Forsaken Symphony, the experimental parts of the Haunting and the trumpets of Phantoms. Even though I more enjoy the long doomy songs on their previous album, this has turned out to be a very good cd. But it's a shame that it lasts for less than fourty minutes...			⑱
