I like this album. Obviously, it's no Moons and Mushrooms, but I see this as an album that does something Lake of Tears has never done. They kinda got an edge on this. Granted, it is hard to take him seriously with his vocal style, but I found myself really enjoying it. It's probably just good timing. One song he's like "Fears come crashing in, you can't even breathe, Come on, Come on, your about to die". Or like the first song, "Gonna get you next, floating in darkness, 666. Awesome! The ballad is really cool too, "I gotta hole growing in my soul". It might not be what you expected, but drop your preconceptions and drink some, smoke some, stoke up a fire in the old fire pit and have some fun.javascript:emoticon(':dio:')

This doesn't give me much hope :(. I'll need to check it out for myself and hope that it just didn't sit with you Alex.

It's kind of a hit 'n' miss album. You'll either love it or it will frustrate you to no end. While there are some "filler" material on here, there are some great songs to be heard.

It's typical of Lake of Tears to release something like this, considering all their previous albums have been quite different from each other.
