"Don't believe your ears" - thus I would paraphrase one of CHILDERMAS songs. Why? Cause I would have never believed a band from USSR could blend gothic rock with samples in a good way. And introduce progressive elements besides! Hey, true orthodoxies, don't be stern, that's metal enough even electronic Get Loved, darkwave Intro and MY DYING BRIDE cover (Sear Me). Every song is very individual and a potential hit. E.g. I looped Don't Promise Me I listened to the song 10 times. Such a discoteque! Cleansed By Curse is dedicated to "Kursk" submarine tragedy and inset with bulletin reports and sound of waves. We can experience the tragedy again and again with our eyes fastened to TV screens. The song is quite lyrical in fact, sad but bright. The album could have been a bit longer. Still it is a must both for extreme and easy music lovers. I wish the band find crowds of fans worldwide because CHILDERMAS just deserve it.
