Review by ZeroSymbolic7188 for Charon - Songs for the Sinners (2005)

To me this album plays like if My Dying Bride were to make a rock radio album. You have some of that sombre quality, but the tempos, track lengths, and rock riffs don't allow for it to hit anywhere nearly as hard. That being said I actually think this one will work for some people. I am just not among those people. Listen to the song "Gray" and decide if you want more or not. I also had to ding the album because it contains a song called "Air" that just absolutely sucks. J.P. Leppauluto is an above average vocalist, but he's not Aaron Stainthorpe no matter how hard he tries to be, and he's trying really hard here.
