Negative Positive
Title: Warning - this is not the Adagio we've come to love.
Review: This release is SO different from Sanctus Ignis and Underworld. Rarely do they recapture their fantastic orchestral sound. Missing are the challenging rhythms. Gone are the great choral sounding segments. Instead they've added a singer who growls and snarls way too much, despite having a good singing voice. And they did a cover song of the theme from FAME? Worst idea I've ever heard. It makes me sad. They tried to go darker, and it doesn't work. Adagio's first 2 albums will remain in my heavy disc rotation for many more years. Dominate will not.
