 Rating: - Post-metal; the thinking mans metalIf I were a vulgar young man I would reel off a list of superlatives to describe the intensity and diversity of this magnificent Swedish made long player. However I will choose a more tender approach. I first got into Cult of Luna in 2003 with their 'The Beyond' release. I had recently got involved with bands such as Neurosis and Isis and they fitted in nicely alongside them. However last year, when I went to Roskilde I was somewhat blase about seeing them. I just thought they would be a pleasant alternative to Red Hot Chili Peppers. I was wrong. They were so much more. The minute they came on, basked in red light, four individuals, their guitars siloheted in the smoke, I knew it was going to be special. The main reason for this was the fact ...

It is a piece of art. I live in north Wales and as i walked along a vast, empty beach listening to the song dark city, dead man; i looked up at the moon and felt that i was going to explode. This album like many great albums by Tool, Isis, Mono, Deftones, gave me one simple message- YOU are alive! There are not many bands that can do that, to make you feel like your heart will erupt from volcanic emotion. People, this album is £5 second hand and i would gladly pay £100 for it. So what are you waiting for? Go and inhanse your life and stay away from James blunt and Oasis before we all perish!

Rating: - One of last years best!I bought this because I like Isis and heard favourable things about them. At first I had trouble with the vocals (rasping distorted death esque) but got hooked by the music straight off. Some tracks clock in at 10 and 15 mins long but how I wish they would go on! It does have traits familiar to other artists who tread the same musical ground but COL have enough passion and muscle to make them stand apart from their contemporaires. This is Dark hypnotic stuff which for me fills the void between early Entombed and Interpol. Strange but true. Rating:  - More of the same will do nicely thank you.`Somewhere Along the Highway' sees Cult of Luna consolidating their position as one the best bands in the epic post-hardcore world. True, there isn't the huge advancement in songwriting that occurred between `The Beyond' and `Salvation', but the latter was such a stunning piece of work it would be nigh on impossible to write an album that would overshadow it completely. Instead, Cult of Luna play to their strengths and add a few new tricks into the mix to give `Somewhere...' its own identity. The most noticeable difference is the much rawer sounding production, which gives the album a more natural feel. The bulk of the 7 tracks follow the mould already established only earlier albums, but rather than lurching between quiet and loud sections as ... Read More: |
