Fall of the Leafe - Vantage (2005)^{Release ID: 15451}

Gothic  Finnish Stadium Rock? Sounds kind of weird doesn't it? Well, listen to it and tell me I'm wrong. I'm awarding 3 stars because I can't say that I've heard something quite like this before, or is it that I've heard a lot of things that sound like this, just not quite this way? *thinks to self* I've heard these pieces before, just not assembled into to one package quite this way. It's somehow got something to do with Lacuna Coil and HIM, but also U2 and Live, maybe The Cult? It's also very very Finnish-I can't explain why, it just is. That being said while it is novel,  once you get about halfway through you come to realize that it's shown you all it's tricks, and when the novelty wears off it's pretty average music at the end of the day. This might be fun to pull a song or two out and say to someone "listen to this and tell me what you make of it". It's a 2.5 product raised to a 3 because it was interesting for a little while.
