Although I couldn't really understand what they were saying because it was in Dutch I really enjoyed this album. I thought the medieval elements on the album were good, but I wasn't like "wow". I also think they could benefit greatly by having some pauses with maybe some slow keyboards added to the background for ambient effect. I think even though it's not amazing, there was definitely some potential here. I really thought the end of 'Giftige Woorden' was well done. This, or perhaps 'De Val' was probably my favorite song on the album. Excellent Musicianship and the Vocalist sounds good but it just seems a little basic. -Brynn Kali StarDew
