Sirenia - Enigma Of Life

The Gothic rock of Sirenia is back with album number five and not much has changed. The band are still pulling the same old tricks from the bag with little new to add to an over done genre. Sure the music is of a decent quality but you've heard it all before by other artists let alone them. There are those giant keyboard punches supposed to be orchestra strikes and then the multi-layered lead vocals giving way to a riff or two repeast as necessary becomes the formula.

This style is usually miss, actually its like 95% miss with maybe 2% being strong enough to listen to more than once a year or two even. I don't know who really likes this genre and continues to support it but I don't know one person that would be heard rocking this in their car on a Friday night cruise. If your really bored with all the good music out there and run of the mill Gothic rock is your fancy then give it a listen. I'm sure this will be much loved by some people who's taste is all in their mouth.
