I've had the Eskhata album from Catamenia for some time, but I can't say I like it much, maybe I should give it some more time, have they made any other albums you can recommend?

 

[Fragile Dreams]

Eskhata is good, but if you listen to one of there more bm albums you will see why i like them so much!

Check out ' Eternal winters prophecy' that album is a masterpeice of melodic bm, in fact, if you ask me, its THE melodic bm album!

Thanks, I'll be right on it, and I'll give Eskhata a couple of more spins too.
