Product Description

Description
Representing a classic case of delayed fame, Italian goth-metal act Lacuna Coil broke into the American music consciousness via a much talked-about showing on the Ozzfest 2004 second stage, nearly two years after the release of their thirdalbum, COMALIES. Similar to its American counterparts Evanescence, this European sextet features the dual vocals of Cristina Scabbia and her male counterpart, Andrea Ferro. Despite the liberal amounts of keyboards added to the mix, guitarists Cristiano Migliore and Marco Biazzi more than hold theirown, pumping choppy riffs into the 1980s-sounding "Self Deception" and the simmering opener "Swamped". What makes Lacuna Coil so unique in an often musically conservative genre isthe band's ability to dabble with ethereal dynamics. Such is the case with the soaring title cut and equally potent "The Ghost Woman and the Hunter", both of which blend neo-classical riffing, swirling synth runs and a perfect juxtaposition of light and heavy vocal phrasing. To commemorate the group's Ozzfest 2004 stint, COMALIES was re-released with a bonus disc featuring nine cuts that include a mix of live and studio acoustic performances, along with videos for "Heaven's a Lie" and "Swamped".

4.0 out of 5 stars Enter the Coil, 17 Oct 2006
This is one of the more recent of Lucauna Coil's albums (though it's a few years old now) and was the first I heard. I still consider this arguably their most accessible album. Though I'd recommend 'In a Reverie' if you plan on buying only one LC album, this comes a close second and is perhaps slightly easier for a new listener.

5.0 out of 5 stars A typical Lacuna Coil CD hard rock style, 18 Jun 2006
By Sandra Sicilie Hansen "musichuman" (Haugesund, Norway) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is the CD i like the best of LC. Most of the songs are more hard rock then on the other CD's. It works on parties, on the bus or just with your friends at home. If you like Sirena, Stratovarius or Within Temptation you would love this album. A lovely album in your collection!

4.0 out of 5 stars A strong album, a real break through for Lacuna Coil, 17 Mar 2009
By Mr. S. Lewis (Saltash, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This was the album that really made people sit up and begin listening to what Lacuna Coil had to say (or sing). It has a lot more depth than their two previous albums: the good debut 'In a Reverie'; and the rather (in my opinion) poor second album 'Unleashed Memories'. However, this album presents us with a different stlye of music. Here we have much more emphasis of heavy metal riffs and good vocals. The songs, on the whole are strong and this album brough Lacuna Coil into the ranks of 'mainstream' metal. Anyway, time for a track by track run through:

Swamped - Right from the get-go, this album presents itself to be something different to their previous work. Male vocalist Andrea Ferro really shines through in the verses and Cristina picks up the choruses. It's a very strong opener for the album and still remains in their live set. 8/10

Heaven's a Lie - A fan-favourite and one of the best tracks off this album. It has some great keyboard work in the intro complimented very well by the heavy, guitar driven verse. The choruses are very catchy and great to sing-a-long to live. 9/10

Daylight Dancer - Some pounding bass and synths kick this song off before Andrea begins singing the chorus. Cristina intertwins her voice with his towards the end until she powers into the chorus, accompanied by some racing double-bass drumming. A very strong song 8/10

Humane - This one is pretty keyboard dominated with the two vocalist twisting their lines around each other in an extremely effective way. While much slower compared to the previous 3, it is still quite a beautiful song, but fails to reach the hights of what's gone before. 7/10

Self Deception - A very pacey, Andrea dominated song that focuses on a guitar and bass pattern that repeats itself quite a lot. Not a bad song but nothing great. 6/10

Aeon - A rather short song based around some acoustic riff and some clean electric guitar to accompany. Some vocals begin towards the end sung very nicely by Cristina. Almost a long intro to the next song. 6/10

Tight Rope - This song is rather bass orianted and features more excellent double-bass drumming. It is a treat having lots of that as Lacuna Coil usually don't feature a lot of it. There is alot of Cristina's very powerful voice all over this song. It's a joy to listen to. 8/10

The Ghost Woman and the Hunter - A very melancolic song that harks back to the strong songs on 'Unleashed Memories'. Cristina's voice really shines through and the result is a fantastic song with a lot of feeling. One of the best Lacuna Coil songs in my opinion. 9/10

Unspoken - Another pretty good album song. Nothing special but the vocals cut through the mix clearly and sound strong and fresh. The chorus is also pretty catchy. 7/10

Entwined - Another rather slow song full of feeling. The swirling keyboards rotate around the headphones giving one the feeling of a complete dream. A very nice song. 7/10

The Prophet Said - Another very heavy one, and I think that Andrea delivers his best vocal performance of any song, Cristina is also good. It's a great headbanging song with a very strong chorus. 7/10

Angel's Punishment - Is Andrea screaming? Wow, he's pretty good at it. Maybe he should do it more often as it fits with their heavy and melodic style. A strong, stand out song. 8/10

Comalies - The album's title track and longest song. To be honest, it's not a particularly good song in my opinion and ends the album in a rather anti-climactic way. 6/10

A very good and enjoyable gothic metal album. However, I think that the follow up 'Karmacode' is much better and you should definatley check that out though as well as this.
