Search - Katatonia :: The Great Cold Distance

Highly Under Rated

(5 out of 5 stars)

"If you are looking at this product then you already should know something about this band. All I can say is this band is one of the most under rated bands out there, and this album proves it. This album is slightly heavier then previous efforts; however, it never loses the sound that makes them who they are. The vocals seem a little more laid back then on previous albums which seems to compliment the music,even in the harder parts.



This album is highly recommended for fans of My Dying Bride, Porcupine Tree, Type O Negative, and Opeth. Not to mention Pink Floyd fans could probably find something in this album to suit them. Granted, this album isn't for everyone and some of their stuff can take a little getting used to. For one thing, despite the heaviness of some of their songs the album carries with it a feeling of hoplessness with mild elements of doom.

Best "New" Album I've Listened To!

"I asked my son for some new music - getting bored with same old stuff. This is fresh, new, bold, whatever. I listened 2-3 times first before giving him feedback. It's a "thumbs up" for this band, and right next to Devin Townsend Project on my favorites that I play every day. I also bought Night Is the New Day. It's even better!!! I purchased both albums only on the reccomendation of my son, who is a musician himself. I was not disappointed!"
