anyone knows if this version is remastered just as the other 2003 digipak ?

How does it sound sound sound sound etc etc 😁

Wow I cant believe this masterpiece has only two reviews. I bought this cd a long time ago because I was a major fan of Cradle of Filth, and Dani said in an interview that this was one of his favorite cds. I didn't take to this cd immediately, but years later this is just awesome. I find the guitars on this cd just immaculate. Another reviewer complained of the drumming. It isn't the strong-point of this cd, but it hardly ruins it. The sound has a doom, gothic sound but mixed with metallica. At least that's my opinion.

Gothic 10 Excellent guitar throughout this one. Towards the end you have some nice keyboards. This is primarily a guitar song. This is also one of the few songs on the cd that has female vocals. They are not overbearing like some bands are. They are just right.

Dead Emotion 9 A bit heavier than the last one. Lots of good growls. The guitars are a mix of choppy riffs and spiraling solos.

Shattered 8 It might be a little repetitive at points but dont mistake repetitive for boring. It sounds so good you wont care.

Rapture 9 Not really much I can say to describe this except that it is really good. A bit darker than the first three.

Eternal 10 This is the classic paradise lost song to me. Too good for words. Definitely my favorite.

Falling Forever 7.5-8 I wouldn't really say that any songs on here are weak, but if I had to pick a weak song this would probably be one of them. Still hardly a bad song.

Angel Tears 6 I really dont know why they put this on the cd. Its just a couple minutes of guitar. The guitar is good but they should have just made it into a song.

Silent 7.5 This one has really good guitars, but it kind of just goes on too long.

Painless 9 After a few letdowns if that what you want to call them. This song gets back on track with one of the best songs on the cd.

Desolate 8 Very dark instrumental. Brooding doom. Sounds like a horror film.

Rotting Misery [Doom Dub] [*][Dub] 10 My second favorite after eternal. The riffs are just bad a$$, and there is a lot of good keys too. Brooding and dark.

Breeding Fear [Demolition Dub] [*][Dub] 8.5 This sounds very death metal oriented which is out of character for the rest of the cd. Very good.

So if you are into gothic or doom metal like My Dying Bride, Tristania, or Cradle of filth. Or if you are just a metal head you definitely need this one in your collection.

Does anyone know how many copies of this gold LP were made?

Excellent copy. Very good sounding record. The cover and inner sleeve is great.

Why is it so incredibly hard nowadays to put the full original artwork on the front. It’s sickening you know :(

Sounds good, thick vinyl (although i think this is a bit of marketing).

As for the music - heavy, operatic, industrial sounding metal. Very dark but very good.
