Dan Swanö returns with his dreadful crimson queen, and of course, Edge Of Sanity , don't think this is a Edge Of Sanity reunion, because is not, no past members are involved in this project, and practically all instruments and vocals duties are handled by Mr. Swanö.
This time the setting is a little less wider, is a convent, were a nun reads the unholy book that can freed the evil queen from her sleep, and once again, make the world bow to her.

A masterpiece again. I prefer the first concept, with 1 unique song, than 45 songs over, but this is still really great !

In fact, not many people really owned Crimson II, as they thought Crimson I has reached the peak and Crimson II was just another commercial option. Wrong to the core, Crimson II is The Best Edge of Sanity's studio album. Crimson II rectified all the weaknesses, omissions and mistakes in Crimson I.
Crimson II (9)
Crimson I (7)
Purgatory Afterglow (6)

I don't know anyone who thinks Crimson II was a "commercial option."
As for correcting the weaknesses, omissions and mistakes of "Crimson I" I tend not to agree there. This is clearly a more keyboard driven album (the lack thereof in "I" should never be regarded as an omission or a mistake if you ask me) and as excellent as this is it doesn't quite live up to a unified entity like "I" was.
Crimson I - 10
Crimson II - 9.5

What's wrong with using keyboard ? I think listening these two albums by analysing the distributions of instruments are not quite right. After all music has to be listening by heart.
Point 1 - Crimson I is a bit harse to me, the harseness is not Immortal kind of harshness, but not that comfortable kind of harshness.
Point 2 - Crimson I has a lot of "waiting slots", I expected something good happened, but I have to wait for quite a while to realize that....it bored me a lot.
May be Swano was using keyboard to rectify these two mistakes (my own opinions), I really find this album smoother. Slightly Avantgarde does no harm to the Death genre. Samael's Passage is a good example.
