It's always a sad sight to witness an institution tumble down hill, none more so than Dark Tranquillity, a band I once considered virtually infallible. Their prior album, Fiction, despite having some moments of greatness, certainly showed signs of greying around the gills, especially after their impeccably polished and resolute performance on Character; a performance which many would agree rivalled The Gallery in its impact: a true affirmation of their ever (if slowly) evolving skill, which is why from We Are The Void emanates the unmistakable whiff of disappointment.

Rating: 9 Regardless of what Marcel thinks (;)), I think Dark Tranquillity continue to re-invent themselves, which is quite surprising and must be very hard if you have released tons of albums like they have. That's what so commendable about DT. I have been listening to the album all week and so far and "In my Absence" and "Iridium" are my favourite songs. The keyboards in this album are exceedingly good and different somehow. A highlight for me also is both Stanne's vocals and lyrics. I don't really know how to be technical about this, but his growl (some ppl say he doesn't growl, he screams, whatever) has a wider range and goes to different places and the result is something very beautiful.

And I really like the bonus tracks as well, I pretty much think they should have been included in the album but I guess they wanted to end up with "Iridium" in a high.

Rating: 7 Finally got it! Just a good album that will give some more lifespan to the band. I don't like the artwork much and the less tracks (bonus tracks popped like mushrums in this recording).

The Fatalist, Her Silent Language, Surface the infinite caught my attention since the first time i listened the songs at their myspace.

7/10 what i feel now.. that's it!

Rating: 8 Good album, enjoy the dis-harmonics they sprinkle in now and then making the album sound a little darker.

Rating: 8 The artwork isn't made by Sundin......

Rating: 7 This album is a bit of a letdown for me. Still a pretty good album, but not up to DT standards in my ears. Sort of sounds like a shell of DT's former self. Going to give it a few more listens, hopefully it'll get better with each.

Rating: 8 Some songs surprised me. All in all, a pretty good album. The keyboard harmony sprinkles and the overall darker tone are a nice touch. Artwork's kinda stupid though, very uninspiring, unlike the artwork for many previous DT offerings. Iridium, personally for me, was a bit of a letdown though. Could have been a better ending.

Rating: 7 A bit better than their past two albums, but just may be due to them trying to step away from their sound from Damage Done. Really the only thing going for this album though are the keyboards (kind of reminds me of Eternal Tears of Sorrow for some reason. The guitar work is hooky but kind of uninspiring if you ask me, and the vocals just seems strained and unvaried and kind of shallow. Overall a listenable and in the least bit enjoyable album.

Rating: 8 At the first listens I was a little sceptical, and I didn't enjoyed it as much as Fiction. But I gave it a second chance and after a numerous plays, it started to grow on me. I think its a raw album compared to Fiction; somewhat heavier, but has a lot of great keyboard atmosphere and melodies. I'm enjoying it a lot.

Bought it and listened to it a gazillion times. And to be honest this is Dark Tranquillity's worst album by far.

a 6 at most just for the effort.



Finally got to listen to this fully, agree with Marcel, the album lacks any sort of substance that made Dark Tranquillity into Dark Tranquillity.
