I have never heard of the original
version of this album, but I know
that it
was well received and that it
features a certain Snowy Shaw who I
definitely
remember from his drumming
with King Diamond's recording and touring
gang
back in the early 90's. I
have actually seen him in the tour for the
support
of the "Eye" album,
which in my opinion where both very good indeed.
Now
this CD is being
re-released by Osmose productions. It has been
re-mixed,
re-mastered and
comes with 6 bonus tracks as well. The length of the
album
is now 45
minutes and thankfully there are very few week moments here.
You
get a
highly original theatrical Metal horror musical with elements of
both
modern and old school Black Metal. I personally appreciate bands that
manage
to present something new and fresh without losing the plot either a
bit
or
completely. Notre Dame is one of those bands and I recommend this
album
not
just to the fans of extreme music. I believe that it can appeal
to
"common"
Metalheads as well, provided that they are openminded enough
and can
appreciate music for what it is, without caring of what the label of
the
music style that the band plays
is.
