Serenades is one of the best doom albums. The best song from that album is Under a Veil. Other good songs Sleepless, Sweet Tears, ja fait una promesse etc. It's really sad that Anathema changed music style in totaly opposite direction and that they don't create albums like Serenades of Crestallen EP..

Agreed. Although I like their newer stuff ... I'd prefer more albums like this one to be there ...

I'm happy I found someone who also prefers their older stuff ...

cheers



Under a Veil (of a Black Lace) is pure genius. You can here from the first tone that this world sucks ... so you just fly with this music ... which can make your depression beautiful depression. That's how I feel it ...

Sleepless is I think in a bit another style than rest of the album ... it's more accesible and catchy ... but nice ... of course this song rocks.

Sweet Tears is the song that pushed me to love Anathema. Awesome. One of the best ones. True highlight and example of death/doom wave in the early 90s.

I don't like Lovelorn Rhapsody and All Faith is Lost as much as the rest, so I prefer The Crestfallen EP cause every song there is gem !!!

so ... 9,5/10

I'm so sad I will never hear songs from this album or Crestfallen live. This is true DOOM man. Maybe I'll start old Anathema revival. Although I dislike revivals ...
