because if this album and Handful of Stars have proven anything, it's that nothing good can come of it.



There is alot of wrong with this Dark. I don't give a shit what people say, Handful of Stars is an exercise in minimalistic shoegaze, whether you like it or not. The album is great within the genre. I do agree with this review though, the album is complete shit.

Lol, I forgot this was coming out, but this is so disappointing! :[
I was hoping for something awesome, considering the acts involved, but, oh, well, I'll give it a listen...

this comes down to opinion though :T i thought handful of stars was awful, bland, boring and almost laughable. it's cool that you disagree though. :]

Wouldn't say Handful of Stars is awful, just really average. I don't hear any shoegaze in it, though. It's basically a post-metal album. Or an attempt at one.

Review is solid (so pos), but there are times when it feels like you're throwing questions at us a bit too often. Be judicious when trying to float points to think about at the reader.

Is it due to lack of effort? Or bad songwriting? Or was this just a bad idea?

Yeah...

it would be if I didn't know that the people doing this album have way more talent than this, this is just an exercise in utter laziness. :]

hmm, it might be that I'm enjoying this more because I've never really listened to any drudkh outside of HoS. I know Neige has done better but I can't get mad at him because he's perfect :]
