The Finnish band Watch Me Fall started their career in 1997
by playing Paradise Lost covers. After having released two demos they have now
signed with the new Finnish label KTOK Records and recorded their debut album.
Except for being somewhat melancholic this album doesn't have much in common
with Paradise Lost. Watch Me Fall has instead turned themselves into a melodic
death metal band but there are still very obvious traces of the melancholic
feeling of gothic metal. If you know of other Finnish bands like Sentenced and
old Amorphis you know what kind of feeling we are talking about. Perhaps there
is something special about the Finnish wilderness that induces this feeling
into its inhabitants. You might say that they sound like a mix of old In
Flames (their "Lunar Strain" and "The Jester Race" albums) and modern My
Dying Bride. Whatever comparisons you try to make Watch Me Fall have managed
to record a very interesting and atmospheric debut album which is something
they should be credited for. There is however more heaviness and sadness than
speed and rage on this album so if these are your only criterias for good
music you should stay away from this. The growling vocals are very powerful
and strong and if you enjoy doom, gothic and death metal this is a suitable
mix for you.
