Ravendusk in my Heart
I have waited a while for this album, I didn't know that it would be
called Ravendusk in my Heart or even what the band's name was, but finally
it came. This is made by Blackheim, the former member of one of Sweden’s
absolute best groups ever, Katatonia. Ever since I heard of the tragic
splittering of Katatonia have I been waiting for some new and interesting
groups to rise from the ashes. I must admit that I got a bit skeptical
when I heard the band name but I thought I'd check it out. This one man
band is one of the newest and most promising bands in the Swedish scene
right now and this is a great album. The music is a bit original B.M. with
keyboards and some cool trash riffs plus a high production by Dan Swanö in
the Unisound studio. The only thing negative on the whole album is those
10 seconds of backing vocals by Swanö on one of the songs. He's there in
almost all songs but in one particular is it very annoying. He's
singing with very shitty feminine glam vocals with almost ruins
everything. Apart from that, Buy!

The Phantom Lodge
Aaaahh! Finally the 2nd album from this great band... The debut was a
brilliant one which many ranked as one of the best debuts ever, and this
is a worthy follower. Musically it's much the same, perhaps abit more
heavy metal, but the material is better and it's all over better done.
there are brilliant guitar work and superb riffs everywhere. If you liked
Ravendusk..., you'll like this aswell.
