3.5 great | furyroad97 | May 26th 16 | Considering the last few albums from these guys have been pretty average at best...this is probably my favourite album from them in about a decade. Seriously, this is some damn good shit right here.

2.5 average | AnAutopsy | July 21st 17 | Lacuna Coil unleashes their inner Korn and makes an album that just doesn't click with me on every level. I listened to it twice and it felt even more weak on the second listen. Most of the "heavy" riffs just feel like throwaway scraps from Korn's latest album. I also don't understand how people can compare this to Comalies because they sound nothing like each other.

2.5 average | SideShowBrian | May 31st 16 | Andrea finally learned he should not sing, and improved his screams. Meanwhile, Christina's singing has gotten worse. When she goes for the high notes (see "Blood, Tears, Dust"), her tone is awful. And whatever she is doing to her voice on the title track (for example) seriously lacks the beauty her voice once had. Musically, the band tuned their instruments like a djent band and play music of a nu-metal band for their heavy songs. rThat all said, many of the songs on this album are far more memorable than anything on Broken Crown Halo. Songs like "Downfall" are where the band really shines...but there aren't enough songs like that.

3.4 great | Trey STAFF | May 31st 16 | After a few missteps, Lacuna Coil have finally regained their composure. This album takes the best elements of Comalies and mixes it with a stripped down version of what bands like Tesseract and Textures play. The best thing is that the male vocalist doesn't sing anymore. He growls and shouts through most of his parts, which is a much better role for him.

3.0 good | Jared Floryan | May 29th 16 | Obtaining madness is something that can only count in horseshoes and hand grenades. One of these days, people are bound to come to a conclusion that craziness for the sake of it just isn't enough; in case of seeking a better, less shallow life, folks have to find different methods as far as acting unhinged is concerned while ironically capturing newfound sanity in the process. That sure as hell didn't make sense, but this at least does: Italian gothic metal group Lacuna "Beach" Coil are sounding better on their latest studio album here than on the last few records they put out (albeit not by much). The band's eighth full-length affair Delirium is a fine effort on their part and isn't quite as forgettable as something like the previous release Broken Crown Halo. It's by no means outstanding and I kinda sorta wish male vocalist Andrea Ferro went bye-bye at this point, but at the end of the day, Lacuna's newest LP is a step in a relatively better direction. Angel recommends: "Blood, Tears, Dust," "Ghost in the Mist," "My Demons," and "Ultima Ratio". On another note, this ensemble's cover of the Madonna track "Live to Tell" isn't half-bad to be honest.

4.0 excellent | cloakanddagger | May 29th 16 | I almost lost hope with this band after their last album, but this is better than anything they've put out in the last 10 years.
