Great album like any other Katatonia album, the second one with clean vocals wich i like better but the vocals of Mikael Akerfeldt were great and are great. great atmoshpere and very good and sad lyrics. maybe its a good comparision comparing them to The Cure if they went metal. but comparing them to Weezer like someone did here is just stupid. Katatonia have more talent in their little fingers then Weezer have, but still they are ok too.
but if you like great sad music buy this album and any other from Katatonia especialy the Great Cold Distance wich i think is there best album. and the Live Consternation album and dvd are great too
