"Absolutely stunning in so many places, it is basically the same contrast they did in White Light from the Mouth on Infinity; grandiose loud walls of sound pitted against dreamy folk (albeit this time the loud bits are even louder, and there is now an overt country tinge to the folk bits) The one ..."  [+]  Reply

"I'll compare it to In the Aeroplane Over the Sea. It's probably an album that would have a love/hate relationship with it's listeners, if it were more known about. Fortunately I'm on the love side. This is brilliant."  Reply

"I only stumbled across this band in 2021 with A Fever Dream and I loved that. This album started and initially I hated it until it got to the middle set of songs and I warmed to them. Even the first 3 or 4 listens I was still feeling no love for the opening half - suddenly something clicked and I..."  [+]  Reply

"Outstanding dark, gothic album with great riffs and wicked lyrics. I wouldn't have though Jim Steinman and Sisters of Mercy made for a good marriage, but the two Steinman-penned songs, More and When You Don't See Me, come across perfectly. The rest is also excellent, especially the title cut and ..."  [+]  Reply
