Charon's Best Yet by W87 (Australia)  4 Stars
April 11, 2006
Charon's best album, this is a superb example of Finnish gothic metal (suomi-metal?). The singer's (JP something or other) deep voice is emotive and appropriately dark, and above all, melodic. None of those nasty death growls here. The closest band, if you're looking for a comparison, is late Sentenced, with an emphasis on emotion (rather than evil/quirky lyrics). Charon's singer is much more accomplished as well.
Standout tracks include Colder, Deep Water, Rain and the single Ride on Tears. All these tracks display the rockier side of the band, but that is not to say the slower tempos are bad. A female singer is used extensively throughout the album and it really adds a special something to the songs. Lets hope they keep her around!
The only problem that I find with Charon is their tendency to fall back on the same, slow drum beat and bass line during the verses. These tracks (Rust, House of Silent and Air) are better suited to headphones, in a darkened room. But it all adds to the gothic feel of the album. House of Silent in particular is quite beautiful, consisting in the first half a duet and then closing with a great, melodic guitar solo.
Songs For the Sinners displays much better production than previous efforts (including The excellent Dying Daylights). I wish they'd tighten up the drum sound - I think it would lift the whole band to a much 'bigger' level.
This album would be a great place to start to hear Charon at their best, and is a must for fans of late Sentenced, To Die For or even Entwine.
