"Evanescence return to form with their latest release, crafting an enthralling gothic metal album akin to their roots but with a modern production sound. Fans of their older works will find this enjoyable, but its catchy rhythms and soaring choruses could capture the imagination of a new listener ..."  [+]  Reply

"Love it, love it, love it. So much fun, sounds like summer and like being young and drinking with your friends. Insane hooks and catchy pop melodies make this an enjoyable ride. Will always consider this record a soundtrack for my last year of high school."  Reply

"I take back my comment from years ago, this has some great tracks I forgot about (Lifetimes). At least four songs are standout Van Morrison performances including Walking in Venice and Santa Fe, former a lengthy delight, the latter a lengthy slow jam. The first cut and the title cut are more acce..."  [+]  Reply

"It's a sort of more personal take on the stuff he did under the bright eyes moniker, but really sounds like an extension of bright eyes. The distinction is faint.

"More people should know about this album! It's experimental jazz meets polyphonic classical song in one song, then monk choir meets a soprano with harps and greek folk guitar in the next, then harmonica and sighs and funky guitar. So sad it's not widely available. Updated in 2025: It's on differe..."  [+]  Reply
