There are two CDs. Let\u2019s talk about the first. This one includes lots of hardcore, symphonic and gothic bands, for example Suicidal Ride, Dark Down Project, Wrathrone and Viper Arms. If I have to choose my favourite song, I\u2019ll definitely say\u00a0 \u201cWelcome to the den\u201d by Mad Matter\u2019s Den (which remand to Rhapsody Of Fire for contents and tunes) because I think these lines (\u201cI am what you fear\/Your endless night of pain\/your nightmare becomes real\/and your destiny is sealed\u201d) could represent sensations that everyone has proved at least one time in his life. Then, there are more Symphonic bands, like Teardown (which recall Lacuna Coil for the acoustic), and some similar-Gregorian stuff ( Beyond the dream,Lovijatar,Division XIX and Cry of Pain).They are obviously different form each other, for example Division XIX are on the borderline between\u00a0 Gregorian and Pink Floyd, whereas Lovijatar sings more a cappella songs and Cry of Pain more ballads.<\/p>\n<p>Talking about CD 2 , it\u2019s almost the same, but there are less hardcore bands and growl singers. Though I am not denying the value of their music, I could not find to my liking bands like Fractured Spine, Noumena, Among the pray, Thyrien and Torchia because they\u2019re too hardcore for me ( I prefer \u201cclean\u201d voices ). The song I liked the most is \u201cThree rivers\u201d by Lucy Pherson, because of his\u00a0voice: even though it\u2019s raspy (it could sound in contradiction with what I\u2019ve said before) the contrast between his voice and the music is likeable. Some bands that are noteworthy are Enthring with \u201cCitadel\u201d (the beginning in a Renaissance style is very original),Burnclear with \u201cLost for life\u201d (the singer has a very clear and powerful voice even when the tonality decrease),Embassy of silence(for the female voices), Crimsonic and Block of Flats ,that reminds, respectively, Avantasia and Blink 182. The only weakness of this collection is that some bands aren&#8217;t unique : they\u2019re all too similar to other famous bands, so they don\u2019t sound odd.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Beatrice Silingardi This collection is very well-made, because it contains at least one band&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":6435,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/artout.ro\/reviste\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6434"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/artout.ro\/reviste\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/artout.ro\/reviste\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artout.ro\/reviste\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artout.ro\/reviste\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6434"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/artout.ro\/reviste\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6434\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6436,"href":"https:\/\/artout.ro\/reviste\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6434\/revisions\/6436"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artout.ro\/reviste\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6435"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/artout.ro\/reviste\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6434"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artout.ro\/reviste\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6434"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/artout.ro\/reviste\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6434"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
