Well, whether you like it or not, The 69 Eyes are one of the best glam gothic rock (or goth n' roll, call it however you wish) bands around and no-one can deny it and when I say no-one I mean those of you who are willing to search a bit and realize who The 69 Eyes really are.
"Devils" is the latest release of these Finnish rolling "lost boys" and it's their most mature album up to date compositionally, atmospherically and emotionally since every part of their history is harmonizing so beautifully in their sound and there's nothing negative left to say since they also take their sound a few steps further. In "Devils" you will find glam rolling references as well as gothic references and a dirty street rock feeling at times, elements we had noticed in the previous releases of The 69 Eyes. This time, as they reach the golden balance between glam and gothic, they enrich their soundscapes with some orchestral oriented keyboard melodies that make their atmosphere more affected and intense, a vivid step forward for the Finnish rockers.
