The band has gained a lot in maturity since their first release "25th hour bleeding" and they have managed to develop their sound and their musical orientation a little further. The band's influences are very obvious as on their first album. Touches from Anathema and My Dying Bride as for English doom and some early The Gathering (era Anneke of course) and soft Opeth influences along with some light In Flames or even Dark Tranquillity as for the Gotenburg sound. But the band went a little further with the experimentation and tends to become very atmospheric and progressive at times, especially due to the fragile haunting and desperate female voice of Emma Hellström and her soft flute and piano and keyboard parts. Tobias Martinsson's male vocals are getting sometimes clearer than on their previous effort and complements Emma's voice better, but he also remains death-ish when he has to. The band also added some more nice folk influences into their music which helps develop their music into new territories more progressive than on their first album. A really fantastic album, warmly recommended!!
