Lacuna Coil – In a Reverie – Review

September 1, 1999

Layered, belted-out female vocals punctuated by a growling guy. It’s not Goth enough to be Goth, and not brutal enough to be metal. Your parents will like it.

Identity Five – Review

September 1, 1999

With 17 tracks, 76 minutes, there’s something here for anyone into metal: Heavy, power, nü, black, death, doom, epic, Goth, hardcore, and the schools within.

September 1, 1998
