"Combine the massive drumming of Fear Factory, the excellent dual-guitar work of Iron Maiden, and the best vocals this side of Within Temptation, Lacuna Coil, and Leaves Eyes (ex-Theater of Tragedy), and you have just a hint of how phenomenal this band really is. What you can't imagine, unless you listen, is how their sound is so totally captivating. This combination of aggressive music and ethereal vocals, transcends Evanescence (Amy Lee is a great singer), and most other music in this genre of female lead goth/symphonic metal. It really is a spectacular debut album; I cannot stop listening...it sucks you in, and just won't let go."
This Band Rocks

"I have sceen Echoes of Eternity live in concert in Houston TX not to long ago and thought they were great. I have never heard of them before, but after hearing them live I picked up a copy of their album at the merchandise booth and I got to meet the band after the show. I have been listening to the album for the passed couple of days and have enjoyed it just as much as when I heard them live. I think Francine Boucher has great vocals and delivers with a powerful punch. The rest of the band is very good instrumentally and they really have it together. You have to enjoy progressive metal or goth metal to appreciate the music. I thought the album was well put together, you will just have to check it out yourself. I am all about bands that have a femal vocalist, I can't wait for their next album."
Not Your Typical Gothic Metal Band!

"Went to see Echoes of Eternity 04/11 at Brick by Brick here in San Diego, CA.,USA. Their music has a harder edge than most bands that I have seen. Traditional heavy metal grooves & riffs with progressive and gothic movements. The intensity of their music is power & tightness-OUTSTANDING! Francie Boucher vocals are traditional and a blend that gives a song a completely different vibe-ethereal and higher pitch. This CD gives alot of divesity, aggressive and heavy songs to slow and dreamy ballads. The band members are very technically skilled-WHAT ENERGY! I had them all autograph their new CD for me! They will be up and coming band this year! What a unique sound of vocals and metal blend!"
Pretty good

"I saw these guys in concert recently, and they actually are a bit better live. Otherwise Echoes does need a little more range in sound and technique, but i still enjoy them immensely. She does need to speed her voice up a bit though. For gothic music its pretty par for the course."
Keep metal alive

"Would like to see more from this group but would also like to see more dynamic range from the Hottie they have fronting them. The riffs are killer, nice use of double bass very tranquil melodies."
