Lacuna Coil's third full-length disc will not disappoint fans of the group's stately
goth pop; led by the excellent tag-team vocals of
Cristina Scabbia and (male vocalist)
Andrea Ferro, the Italian sextet continues to produce top-notch atmospheric
rock that defies easy categorization. Although there are occasional lapses into conservative craftsmanship (
"Self Deception") and trite lyrics, there are also some nice
experimental touches, like the attention-grabbing start/stop digital editing in
"Aeon." ~ Andy Hinds
