Dance of December Souls...

Katatonic Opethoid
The only Katatonia albums I've heard up until know have been "Brave Murder Day" (which is superb, by the way), "Tonight's Decision" and "Last Fair Deal Gone Down." My point is, I recently downloaded some tracks from "Dance of December Souls" and... my god... it's brilliant! I just wanted to express my joy over this album with everybody else... Now, if only I could find a copy for sale around here... stupid Canada!

One thing that kind of confuses me is why they chose Mike Akerfeldt to do the vocals on "Brave Murder Day" and "Sounds of Decay"... I LOVE Mikael's voice and I think it suits the music perfectly, but BMD sounds NOTHING like "Dance of December Souls." Jonas' voice and Mikael's voice are just sooooo different! Jonas screams, Mike groans and growls... they're both great... but completely different...

Anyways, I'm rambling now... I'm just glad to be back on the board! ;)
 
And the reason Mikael is on BMD and SoD is because Jonas put a bit too much in his screams and ruined his screaming voice.

So Mikael was on that album and ep, then Jonas crooned on the later stuff...
 
Dance of December souls is my favourite Katatonia album
It's pitty that the band don't play any song from this album when on stage anymore.......
