The seductive female vocals are the album's strong point, but with so many other bands adopting the same mix of goth, metal and female vocals, much more is needed than a good set of lungs. Nor does the cover of a well-loved classic help. Their interpretation of Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart" manages to remove the cloak of darkness of the original, rendering it closer to the Eurodance remixes of rock classics rather than the original's haunting atmosphere. Ian is not so much turning as spinning in his grave at this heresy.

This is only recommended for those who regard the last couple of Theatre of Tragedy albums as the best albums ever. Anyone else is encouraged to give this a wide berth.
