Fernando Ribeiro and his
Portuguese gang of vampiric metallers are back again but this time to
disappoint me a lot. Sure, the production might be much better and cleaner
than "Wolfheart" ever was but the beautiful melodies from their last album
seem to have vanished into the air somehow. We are left with dark vocals and
erotic lyrics in Portuguese and English as the last time but without the old
Moonspell they can never be the same as they once were. This time it is
predictable with no surprises and no songs that want to stick to your mind
except perhaps for "Raven Claws" which has some of the old Moonspell sound
and female vocals from Birgit Zacher as usual. With such perfect production
it´s a pity Moonspell didn´t manage to keep their music as classy as the
"Wolfheart" album. Percussion on the fourth track was performed by Markus
Freiwald. The album was recorded at Woodhouse Studios between the 25th of
March and the 11th of May 1996, produced and mixed by the one and only
Waldemar Sorychta and engineered by Siggi
Bemm.
