Memorable, but no "Draconian Times"

Review Score: (8/10)
The mood throughout the CD is held intact by shifts in lead guitar and occasional swashes of keyboards. But by track 12 a monotony has completely unfolded and I was left with a gothic experience with very little variation. The final track(#13)is easily the most interesting, sounding more like classical music than the doom-laden instrumentation of the earlier tracks. But I can't say I didn't like the album. It was good, with enough interesting lead guitar changes to keep things relatively on course. But get "Draconian Times" first...because I said so. "Respect my aw-thor-a-tay!"
