Eternal Tears of Sorrow's new effort has all the essential elements of a great symphonic death metal album: nice melodies, heavy riffs, interesting gothic lyrics, symphonic parts in the right dose, variety in vocals. The Finnish scene knows how to deliver professional albums and Eternal Tears of Sorrow could not be an exception. My only objection to this wonderful album? As usual, I would prefer some more experimentation from them, the ear of a trained listener always craves for different things.
