Top-Notch Female-Fronted Symphonic Metal April 26, 2008
5 out of 7 found this review helpful
I was listening to "Bloodangel's Cry" at work recently, and a colleague asked me what kind of music it was. I thought about it for a moment, and then replied "Female-fronted symphonic speed metal". And that's what Krypteria is, and it is *excellent*.
Lead singer Ji-In Cho doesn't have as strong a voice as that of Amy Lee of Evanescense or Sharon den Adel of Within Temptation, but she has tremendous energy. And she *needs* it, to keep up with the blistering pace of music that the rest of the Krypteria band puts out. Their combined efforts result in a symphonic metal album that is truly inspired.
Stand-out tracks include "All Systems Go", "Scream", "Lost", "I Can't Breathe", "Dream Yourself Far Away", and "Sweet Revenge". I normally consider an album to be worth buying if it has at least two stand-out tracks, and this one has SIX. And *all* of the rest are worth a listen as well. Not a single one among them is bad.
*Highly* recommended. Any fan of female-fronted rock should consider buying this album today.
BEST female fronted symphonic metal next to THERION May 18, 2008
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
Gothic Kabbalah may have been a letdown but Therion's body of work has a tremendously good ratio of GREAT songs vs filler. This band catapults into their league with their three albums, this one by far their best.
Nightwish, Sins of Thy Beloved, Visions of Atlantis, Epica, Asrai, MacBeth (Italian), Tristana, all have to take a step down to make room for KRYPTERIA. They all have their share of Good and Great songs but also have their share of filler.
Over the course of their three albums, Krypteria has evolved quite a bit. Where will they go next? It's like they have been discovering who they want to be and what they are. Now that they know, Look Out!
awesome! March 12, 2008

I'll make it short. If you like well written metal, are a fan of Nightwish, either singer, do NOT hesitate to pick this up. This is one albums that pulls you in, is completely awesome, and before you know it, it's over. All songs stand on their own, not a bad one. Buy it now!

I'm not entirely certain why Krypteria seems largely ignored if number of reviews in any indication. This group is right up there sniffing at the heels of the likes of Within Temptation, Epica, and Nightwish. The singer isn't what I would call powerful, but she can certainly carry a tune. There sound might lean a bit towards the pop side, but not too much. I'd recommend this one to any fans of symphonic metal.
