I had posted earlier about getting an Anathema CD at my local record store. I had forgotten what CD it was, but I finally got the opportunity to go and I bought it. A cool digipak CD...titled ETERNITY.
Let me just say this...
I normally expect good things from the underground Metal scene. Sometimes I'm dissapointed...most of the time I'm pleased. But rarely to I listen to the first couple of songs and determine that they are some of the best songs I've ever heard. When hearing "Angelica," my heart stopped...and I had a huge smile on my face. The kind of smile you have while giggling to yourself, saying 'I didn't think this song would be that good!'
The whole CD is great. The guitars are awesome, and that's always something I look for in a band, the vocals are raw and emotional (and not harsh like most of the underground metal bands I've been getting into), and the songs are brilliant. Touches of hard rock, metal, progressive, alternative, and even new age! And it all works!
Thank you, everyone, for helping me out! I know this will be a CD that I will listen to for years to come!
