ghost of the sun might be the worst opener to an otherwise great album I've ever come across.



The profanity on this album really hasn't aged well.

I don't know, the lyrics on the opener always made me think of LP and apparently I'm not alone. And the profanity on Criminals always felt pretty awkward.

One thing I can't deny about this album is that it has some hot hooks.

Oh wow that 10th Anniversary is really interesting. The new backup vocal harmonies, and those keyboards holy heck. They were pretty liberal with adding some new, massive sounding, pads for sure, just listening to Sleeper it becomes very apparent:

Yeah, it's not just subtle changes. It's so much better with those changes, though.

My favourite songs on the album:



1. Sleeper

2. Walking By A Wire

3. Wealth

4. Burn The Remembrance

5. Evidence

6. Ghost Of The Sun

7. Complicity

8. Omerta

9. Criminals

10. A Premonition



One Year From Now has a nice sound and style but it's too repetitive especially the Everything I own I give you.

Expected more from Inside The City Of Glass. And Will I Arrive is for me the weakest song structure-wise, a waste of a song, too predictable. Many other songs don't have the 3rd chorus. Complicity and Criminals have it but I find their choruses really strong.

doesn't feel like a classic album to me anymore. I once really dug this when i first got into katatonia but with every subsequent revisiting it became weaker for me.
