Music reviews of Deep Shadows & Brilliant Highlights
Music Review: This again?
Rating: 3 Stars
Okay, don't get me wrong, I'd give the songs on the album 5 stars, but I'm talking about the record company. First off, there is NOTHING new on this album. Like Universal did with Razorblade Romance, putting the digipack songs on them, they did not do it with Deep Shadows. It's just the old 10 track version, and there isn't even a video extra. I for one would have really liked to have seen at the very least, You Are The One, and In Love In Lonley from the digi on this release. Now, this is a very good album, but as I already have it, it will probably not be comming home with me.
Now for tracks:
Salt In Our Wounds: Weird intro, but it's not bad. Then the actual song is just awsome. Great lyrics on Valo's part, and a really cool guitar solo.
Heartache Every Moment: Cool keyboard intro. Again, awseome lyrics on Valo's part. Linde does a good (but short) solo. The only akward thing about it, is the second verse. It's only about two lines. It doesn't really hurt the song, but it's just a little odd.
Lose You Tonight: Probably the hardest song on the album. It stands out from the rest of the album, and I do believe Valo used some sort of effect on his vocals. Another very nice solo by Linde.
In Joy And Sorrow: Great lyrics. It has song interesting things insturmentally as well. Unlike most of the album, it's more acoustic. And it even involves some strings. The only thing I don't like about it is how it begins. Right from the start, the lyrics begin. It probably would have benefitted from a slight intro.
Pretending: It's a bit hard to describe this one. Wonderful lyrics, and very nice guitar work. But it won't appeal to everyone. I suggest you just listen to it.
Close To The Flame: Probably the softest song on the album. Very melencholic, nice makeout song if your into that. A bit boring guitar wise, but you probably won't think of that while listeing.
Please Don't Let It Go: Similar to Salt In Our Wounds. Very nice chord progression, but not much as far as a solo goes. Cool song, there is a VERY good live version of it on the Solitary Man singles.
Beautiful: One of, if not the best make out song I've ever heard. A real wooier of the ladies this track. The lyrics are a bit repeative, and there is barley any guitar, but nice synth line. There is another version of this song that was originally intended to be on the album, called Beautiful (Third Seal). It's only available on the In Joy And Sorrow single, which is in the Single Collection. Very different, a lot harder.
Don't Close Your Heart: Easily the poppiest track on the album. Somewhat of an annoying intro, but cool keyboard during the chorus. Cool track non the less.
Love You Like I Do: Not much going on as far as lyrics go, but REALLY good insturmental. An extremly melencholic song. One of my favorite songs on the album.
Now, as I mentioned before, the songs on the album get 5 stars. The only reason I gave it a three was becase of the record company. If you into softer HIM, I strongly reccomend this album.
