Delain – “We Are The Others”

I only recently got into Delain, having listened to their last album April Rain just a few short months ago. I actually thought that album was good; catchy female-fronted goth metal – even though a tad bit too poppy at times for the metal tag.

Stylistically their latest album, We Are The Others”, is very similar to April Rain. While the songs do have some crunch, the emphasis is obviously on harmonies and showcasing vocalist Charlotte Wessels’ amazing voice. This is solid stuff with the only really weak song being “Where Is the Blood”, which features a guest appearance by Burton C Bell of Fear Factory. I’m sorry Burton, but you just didn’t fit the song! Other than this minor glitch, We Are The Others is a solid goth pop/metal album and well deserving of your hard earned cash – if you’re into this type of thing.
