^^great songs

There is a really old band (about to show my age) called Type O Negative you may like.

i usually prefer that "type" of music to have male vocals, more so growling type.. but i can tolerate it.. i like the music, but i am just too into "heavier" stuff.. so while it may be nice and soft, it needs to have some evil, lol.. check out The Sins Of Thy Beloved.. awesome band, my favorite in that genre..

also here are a few other good bands:

Sirenia
Opera IX
After Forever


also Leaves Eye has a new cd called Legend Land from 06', Vinland Saga is from 05'

[quote="Scarrell"]if you like that type of stuff, check out the Aegis album from Theatre Of Tragedy, one of my favorite cd's!


also to add, the song Cold Heritage by Lacuna Coil is amazing.. great song.. it also gets damn low suprisingly!

erm, ok, i just watched this, it isnt even the video, its a stupid compilation, blah, ohwell.. its the right song atleast.[/quote]

Aegis is a great CD. Check out the new Leaves' Eyes Vinland Saga CD if you haven't yet, I feel Liv's vocals are even better on that than the TOT stuff, which is really saying something because her voice is incredible. Just whether you can get into that kinda stuff, it is more of a fantasy CD than it is down to earth kinda stuff.

I concur with Karmacode, Comalies and such. The more I listen, the more I prefer the earlier CDs due to the rawer sound. It's a little more "honest" if you will.

if you like that type of stuff, check out the Aegis album from Theatre Of Tragedy, one of my favorite cd's!

Thanks for the info.

I really like Heaven's A Lie (and most of Comalies for that matter) but much of Lacuna Coil's stuff just doesn't move me.....and I really want to like them.

[quote="headknocker"]Ya know, I like some of Lacuna Coil's stuff (I have three of their CD's) but overall I feel the songwriting is lacking. And listen closely to the female vocalist's recessed mix. Her vocals are never upfront and center....they're always recessed in the mix. Are they trying to hide her shortcomings?[/quote]

Not really that, a lot of the music seems to be getting heavier and it's overshadowing her voice. Sucks, she sings SOOO well. Listen to her live (or download a clip of them live) sometime, she's the real deal. Plus, the record label isn't the greatest as far as quality, but they're getting better. I think the lyrics are good, it's mainly the guitars, a lot of the songs could afford to be less heavy or at least clearer.

If you want to hear her voice more, listen to Falling (note: there is falling, which is the acoustic version from their self titled EP, then there is Falling Again from the "In a Reverie" EP. I'm talking about the former acoustic version), the acoustic version of Swamped, stuff like that. Their older albums had her more upfront.

I'm telling you though, listen to Within Temptation's most recent album, "The Silent Force". She has an angelic voice and a huge range, and their music is well recorded.
