Description
I doubt that in the 90's, there was a way to avoid the ever present genius of Dan Swano. Godsend might not be the most familiar band he hascooperated with but surely not the least. Godsend succeeded in combining doom with slight gothic and progressive touches. For some people thelevel of brilliance achieved on this first full length (and bonus demo) was never reached again. Presumably this is the first album where Dan Swanoused clean vocals and the very deep bass register is quite impressive and eerie without lacking the right amount of emotion. There are times thatyou can even distill small hints of Marillion on this album although most songs are along the lines of doom metal as we are used to. The bonus discfeatured with the deluxe double cd edition of this album also includes the 'Demo 1992' which is also remastered and sounds amazing. This is a mustfor fans of melodic doom from the 90's era, featuring Dan Swano.
