 Interesting theme, Horrid vocals June 18, 2007
2 out of 8 found this review helpful
I bought this expecting music to write by...strong musical themes with little or no vocals. What I got was a woman wailing off key and drowning out what could have been a great CD.
The lyrics enclosed were interesting,and may have made pretty good musical listening if someone else with talent and/or training had been singing.
 Fantastic - I wish there were more September 9, 2007

As my title states, I think this album is fantastic. Here we have lovely, gothic sounding songs, some inspired by the myths of the Watcher angels. I think it is a beautiful piece of work, and my only real complaint is that there are not more songs on the album. I have had this in my CD player since I bought it several weeks ago and still have not tired of hearing it!
Haunting & Spellbinding October 6, 2007

I bought this CD when it first came out I still listen to it every week which is an accomplishment for me! I was fortunate to hear a preview of the album in person, where Ms Belager sang a selection of songs alcupela. I do not normally rush to buy any album, though my taste are rather eclectic Gothic and techno are not very high on my list of favorites. To say the least I was spellbound by this album for the most part a couple of the songs I do not care for. Overall a I have to say well done!

It is very melodic and sets you into a relaxing and entrancing state. I just loved it.
 Haunting Gothic themes occasionally overdone July 3, 2007

Michelle Belanger has a good voice, but Charolette Church she is not. She's not the next great soprano, but certainly she can make some very fine melodies. In several of the songs she overlays her vocal tracts to make harmonies that are very lovely and haunting (particularly Bitter Ashes and Angels are Weeping).
None of the songs are BAD, but in some I was honestly reminded of almost comically overblown poser Goth poetry. These kinds of songs shouldn't honestly make me want to laugh at their sheer pretentiousness, should they? The poetry angle that seems to be most of the inspiration for the songs makes for fairly simplistic melodies. There's nothing wrong with that, and I thoroughly enjoyed at least half the songs on this CD, but some of them rate more in the tedious category than haunting or inspiring.
My advice, buy this on the cheap if you need some inspiration for your next Vampire: The Masquerade game, or your next delving into the world of Goth.
