Melancholic Black Metal.
Франция, проект участников Annthennath и Quintessence, вдохновлённый классиками Enslaved и Bathory. Отличный материал, мрачный, местами грязный, но при этом качественно и атмосферно сыгранный.

Не мытьем так катаньем! Через пятнадцать лет после начала своей деятельности группе GB удалось все-таки выйти на европейский уровень. Летом 2005 года был заключен контракт с вполне солидным голландским лэйблом Mascot Records, от которого группа получила финансирование на запись своего второго полноформатного альбома под названием "Skymorphosis", там же вышел последний на данный момент альбом - Graveyard Of Angels.

Явных, бросающихся в глаза, отличий от предшественника нет, но всё же рост музыкантов виден невооружённым глазом. Уровень мелодичности заметно возрос, от однообразности, которая в какой-то мере имелась на дебютном альбоме, ничего не осталось. Практически все песни запоминаются с первого раза, за исключением нескольких более слабых треков в середине и конце альбома. “The Fury Of Our Maker’s Hand” – очень яркий пример логического развития творческих идей.

Мало сомневаюсь в том, что всем прелестям "Under The Red Cloud" не под силу поколебать топовые позиции "House Of Sleep", "Silver Bride" или "Silent Waters", или той же избранной классики девяностых разряда "Black Winter Day" как самых слушаемых и узнаваемых песен группы. Тут выглядят убедительнее другие силы: сила привычки и сила ностальгии... Но абсолютно уверен, что годы спустя этот альбом можно будет обнаружить практически во всех списках самых знаковых работ Amorphis.

Сборник редчайших записей легенды goth-сцены Christian Death, сделанных в классический период (1981 - 1989 годы) в оригинальном составе! Большая часть песен записана "вживую", и дает отличное представление о том, как звучали Christian Death на концертах в то время! Не менее интересна и "студийная" часть компиляции - ранее неизданные композиции, записанные в студии в 1983-1985 годах, во время плачевно закончившегося сотрудничества Розза с нынешним лидером Christian Death Вэлором!

Millennium: Tribal Wisdom and the Modern World is a 1992 documentary television series of ten one-hour episodes celebrating the lifeways and worldviews of small scale non-technological societies as the last of them face their inevitable accommodation with the 'modern world'. The Western world's desire to remake other societies into its own image robs our modern world of the gifts of other cultures. By exploring the values and different worldviews that hold many tribal societies together, the Millennium series reflects on what the modern world can learn from tribal societies as we all face the challenges of the next millennium: harmony with the natural world and one another, humility and tolerance, and a sense of belonging.

Masters of Chant Chapter VII stays true to Gregorian’s signature approach—reimagining pop and rock classics through lush, chant-infused arrangements. If you enjoy calming, choir-heavy reinterpretations that bring a meditative atmosphere to familiar songs, this album is likely a rewarding listen. Do consider it especially if you appreciate standout tracks like "Running Up That Hill."
However, if you're seeking bold originality or emotional authenticity beyond the choir aesthetic, some critics suggest this album may not offer enough depth or innovation.
