The 3rd album of these Finns opens with "Soulshine" and "Roses on a silver plate". With this they immediately leave a memento of very strong dark metal bathed in gothical clouds. Up-tempo songs with mostly gloomy atmospheres and powerful melodies. The more intimate parts, where drama and emotion overcome everything, create depth in the songs.
The keys are in power of the whole. The guitars are melodious and even spit some fire from time to time. An attractive deep low-pitched gothical voice is combined with filthy harsh blackening screams. You feel devoted enthusiasm rising up when all these elements come together in a perfect harmonious sound in killer songs as first two mentioned and "I resonate", "Domain of Despair" and "Powered by the moon". "Babel" is a more horroresque track with a soprano on the background to make it even more thrilling. I guess even Cradle of Filth and Dimmu Borgir will go wild on this one.In the catchy "As the souls embrace" we get a beautiful strong powerful clear female voice in duet with the darkness of Tuuka. Probably it'll even can get some airplay on alternative radio station when they pick this one up. "Dust of time" is a great up-tempo song provided by a great video track as extras. It reproduces the dedicated playing and gripping atmospheres of this band on a stage.
With this album they will be received with open arms in the gothic/metal scene. The layout, done by Yan Yrlund, really needs a compliment too. It fits perfectly with the Let Me Dream sound – powerful, a bit mysterious, but above all very beautiful and attractive! I touch the play button again and enter the world of Let me Dream, because it's a nice place to stay.
