CoC : Lacuna Coil - Lacuna Coil : Review

Lacuna Coil - _Lacuna Coil_
(Century Media, 1998)
by: Adrian Bromley (8 out of 10)

While this Italian atmospheric/metal outfit are a complete carbon copy of The Gathering in my books (I mean... just hear the vocals), there just seems to be something emanating throughout this 6-song EP that draws me to the music of Lacuna Coil. The vocals are the main thing (thanks in part to the lovely Cristina), but it can also be traced to the celestial sounds of passion and excellence spewing forth in monumentous proportions on numerous tracks (i.e. "This Is my Dream" and "Falling") that leave the listener (like myself) taken aback. Powerful expressionism that soothes the soul and leaves you in a hypnotic state. A solid release that deserves a listen.
