(Transmission Records)
Being a very inspired crossing between metal and atmospearic goth young dutch hopefulls AFTER FOREVER will bring delight to all the fans they might have captured with their debut as well as conquer many new fans. Floor Jansen's voice is as powerful and charesmatic as ever and tracks like "My Pledge For Allegiance Pt 1, and Intrinsic are simpy magnifiscent. The album as a whole is a well thought atempt balancing between operatic baroq-esque splendour and tight metal instrumentalisms with grunts disturbing the celestial vocal performance of Floor's. If you liked their debut, Decipher will not fail you in ther slightest bit and if you haven't heard 'em do yourself a favor by picking this one up. You'll be glad you did. Expect a crystal crear production and again a really seducing artwork, augmenting this release. Lose yourself in the Aetherial Realm...
