Damnation and a Day

[Static]

As others have said for themselves, Cradle is not my favourite band. I think Dimmu Borgir do the whole 'symphonic BM' stuff alot better (though many others are just as dickish about this band as well), but some of the shit that goes their way is uncalled for. It's cool around here to give them crap. They aren't particularly the most powerful of bands or most creative or awesome, but they are good.

The vocals are terrible, and ruin the mood entirely. The orchestra is all filller, and while the lyrics are decent, they become repetitive, and ultimately lose their power due to the way they are sung. This could be a decent band if they knocked off the kindergarten scream and tied up their loose ends, and this album is a good indication that somewhere there is some talent in that band. But as a musical endeavor, it's terrible.

where are the twin guitars?

Just one example I can think of off the top of my head: the middle part in Babalon A.D.

I think you didn't listen to the album more than once, huh?

I really love Dani's vocals and CoF is not gay. Some of CoF's groupies are gay.
