PERFECT SYMPHONIC METAL ALBUM

This is a top 10 Gothic / Symphonic album for 2013.

I have been a Liv Kristine fan since 1995, and for sure consider The Liv Kristine Espenaes-era of Theatre of Tragedy, one of the greatest TRUE NORWEGIAN GOTHIC METAL bands of that era and of all time. And going back further I have been a Alexander Krull fan since Atrocity released one of the most important HEAVY death metal albums of all time with the mind blowing album “Hallucinations”, back in 1990. A album which helped spearhead the DEATH METAL AGE..it is that essential, and HEAVY.

I have every album by the bands Atrocity, Leaves Eyes, and lets not forget the stellar solo albums by Liv Kristine, especially Skintight and Libertine

Oh yeah this review is late by 13 days, but I guarantee I was a first day buyer of this album stateside.

My favorite Leaves Eyes album is Njord, but “Symphonies of  the Night” is a must have and a total essential purchase. Buy or Die !!!

This album is so important to me, it was for sure no doubt going to be a top album for 2013
