Title: Forget popular opinion...300 Lesions is a fabulous follow-up
Review: The popular opinion out there seems to be that this album does not live up to the first. I disagree. Kyo's sophmore release may not be brilliant but it is a good album and deserves a thoughtful listen. I, personally, love this album. It is dark and emotional, less sugary than the first. The vocals are melancholy and glorious. "Sarah" is the popular single release and is a fine song, but when I heard "Dans Ma Chair" I was blown away by it. The guitar intro is reminiscent of Smashing Pumpkins crossed with Bush's "Greedy Fly". Another notable track is "L'Enfer". I confess, my understanding of French is minimal so I cannot comment on the lyrical value of the music but the sound intrigues me and this is presently one of my favorite albums. The bonus DVD on the album is extremely dark, a bit disturbing, but somehow beautiful as well.
Is the review positive or negative?
